On April 17, Clark Atlanta University alumni gathered for the official charter ceremony for CAUAA Mississippi Chapter at Eudora Welty Library in Jackson.
It was an exciting occasion for alums to get together and be able to make this happen. National Vice President Corey Echols traveled to Mississippi to help charter the new statewide chapter.
Clark Atlanta University is a great institution for higher learning and has had some notable alumni such as activist Ralph Abernathy, actor Emmanuel Lewis, Tony Award winning Broadway and film director Kenny Leon and many more.
