I am a graduate of Howard Universtty. I am the bearer of the name of a Howard University education that has brought light to many generations. It is through the indelible love and support of my family. and the courage and sacrifices of my ancestors that I am here today. l accept the historic trust of their gifts and pledge to lift others who come after me.

Howard University is my home. No matter how far I travel from her, no matter how long I am absent from her, Howard University is always here for me. I am defined by the privilege of a Howard University education. I cannot fail in life: leadership, service, and the search for truth and right will light my way. My potential contributions to humankind are unlimited, and I will give them freely and in abundance.

I am a Howard University graduate. The opponunity of the Howard University experience has conveyed to me a responsibility lo assure the strength of this great University. It is only through my support that the Capstone can remain strong and focused. r pledge support and understand that it is not a matter of choice, but one of responsibility. I will never forget that responsibility.

I am a graduate of Howard University!
