Good Afternoon Alumni!

The excitement and enthusiasm for all things Fisk has never been greater. At this pivotal moment, our alma mater is experiencing a positive trajectory on campus, with student achievements and alumni involvement. The outlook is bright for the Gold and Blue!

As we return to campus this spring, you will see change. Bulldozers signal that construction is underway, elevator shafts at the new residence hall are identifiable, and site preparation is visible at the future location of the modular student housing (near the Richardson House). 

Registration is open for the all-class reunion (CLICK HERE), which will be held April 28-May 1. You won’t want to miss seeing your Fisk family at the annual fish fry, white party, and gala. 

Following Reunion weekend, the 149th Fisk University commencement ceremony will be held on May 1st at 9:00 AM on the Campus Grove. Grant Hill, NBA legend, team owner, author, and broadcaster has been announced as the commencement speaker. Join us as we celebrate the graduation of the mighty class of 2023. (READ MORE)

From coast-to-coast, alumni engagement is high, as we have supported student recruitment, cheered on our student-athletes and student-scholars, hosted gymnastics team receptions, attended Fisk Jubilee Singers^® concerts, attended theater events, hosted fundraisers, and more. Check out the photo essay to see some of our alumni in action.

It is fulfilling to see Fisk students continue to excel across numerous fronts. The women’s gymnastics team has made history and generated excitement nationwide. Read about their impact in the Good Afternoon Alumni feature story.

At the tough and competitive HBCU Battle of the Brains competition, the Fisk team took second place, earning just one point less than the winning team.

In basketball, both the men's and women's teams have much to be proud of after their performance in the Gulf Coast Athletic conference tournament. And across all Fisk sports teams, 70 student-athletes were named to the Fall semester's Athletic Director's Honor Roll.

The Retool Your School Program saw Fiskites participate in a mighty way with over 800,000 votes cast for Fisk as of March 26. We look forward to the final results being announced on April 11th.

There is much to be excited about at Fisk, our alma mater. Let’s spread the news!

Fisk Forever!
