Homecoming, which to some is the most anticipated time of the year, has arrived. However, embracing our university should be our priority all year long, not just the first week of November.
While Homecoming week plays an important role for any student who has graced TSU's campus, our university needs to be consistently filled with tiger pride.
It is the job of current students to always represent and promote the university with the upmost class and respect.
We should not have to wait until Homecoming for alumni and current tigers to get together as a family and have a great time.
While I am not suggesting that our Homecoming should not be important, loving and cherishing but our school should not be paraded around, just during that time.
Alumni are the heritage of TSU and being abreast about what is going on with the university is vital for the success of continuing to make TSU the top HBCU we know and love.
Faculty and administration, no matter what the degree says on the mantle, you are a tiger.
Always keep the students on their toes about the importance of entering to learn and going forth to serve. No matter how many gripes you hear from students, trust and believe that behind them lies a greater amount of appreciation.
Recharging the blue for a brighter TSU should mean more than a parade, a football game or a tailgate party. It should be a motto for every soul that has been touched by the great TSU.•
