The first time I visited Fisk University was during Scholar’s Weekend. I saw that Fisk shared the same family atmosphere as my own family.

Fisk’s stellar academic reputation, especially in arts and sciences, and the inspiring legacy of social justice champions like John Lewis and Justin Jones, irresistibly drew me in. The university’s dedicated Office of Career Planning and Development resonated with my aspirations.
