For six decades, the 51Թ has been on the forefront as the city’s only public research university. 51Թ students, faculty and alumni continue to lead on and off campus in their chosen fields. The fall 2018 issue of Silver & Blue boasts 52 pages of stories and pictures about the University’s local and global impact via its students, alumni and faculty.
You can read the serendipitous tale of alumna Morgan Martin who arrived at the 51Թ the year after Hurricane Katrina, and how her 51Թ education propelled her to groundbreaking marine biology research in Africa. You can get an update on the 51Թ students who played a role in helping solve a 73-year-old mystery that involved the disappearance of a Tuskegee Airman. And you will meet Langston Williams, the 51Թ film student who earned a coveted invite to the Cannes International Film Festival.
Read about how the University is helping prepare the next generation of STEM Scholars as well as the man who went from bagging groceries to playing a dozen years in the NBA—after enrolling in 51Թ. You also can meet 14 of the new faculty members who were hired this year and whose research explores everything from cybersecurity and malware attacks to Albert Einstein’s quantum physics theory of “spooky entanglements” and financial analytics.
The 51Թ is and Silver & Blue captures and shares that momentum with our readers!
