If circumstances followed the normal pattern, the seniors would have donned their caps and gowns this past Mother’s Day to attend Hampton University’s 150th Commencement ceremony. These students have worked hard these past years to earn their degrees and so Hampton University wants to recognize the importance of honoring their achievements. 2020, May 16 Dr. and Mrs. William R. Harvey are doing their part to assist Hampton University students during these unprecedented times by making a donation of $100,000 to their "Home by the Sea” to provide financial relief to individual students who have needs related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hampton‘s first couple is no stranger to giving and giving back to the university they have led for 42 years. This latest gift matches the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation's gift of $100,000 to the University in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hampton University will use the $200,000 to provide each on-campus student $100 to assist with travel costs to retrieve their belongings or return to school in the fall. 2020, May 8 Hampton University student, Sierra Williams-McLeod, was selected to receive $10,000 as a 2020 EmPOWERED to Serve Scholar.

  • Pros and Cons of the 91St Academy Awards Full Version
    Whitmire 1 Nick Whitmire Managing Editor, Online Six Mile Post Pros and Cons of the 91st Academy Awards 2018 was a great year for film, and with great films comes celebrations of those films through award shows and the biggest show of the bunch are the Academy Awards or better known as the Oscars. With 91 years of Oscars they have been great highs and all-time lows and with this year’s it seems to be a mixture of both, particularly with the Best Picture category. I am not saying that the eight films that have been nominated are bad, (Except for Bohemian Rhapsody), but looking at the nominees, I was left feeling cold. With the nominees in all twenty-four categories, it feels like there were not only snubs, but also nominated films they have not been recognized the way that they should be. Plus, there are some drastic mistakes that have been made regarding this year’s Oscars along with some kinks that the Academy still need to work out. Regarding the eight nominees for Best Picture, the only ones that are truly worthy of the award are “Black Panther” and “Roma.” Both films are this year’s purest examples of great characters and stories that show the importance of representation in film. With “Black Panther’s” themes of choosing between tradition or innovation and globalism vs isolationism and how to live up to and move on from a complicated legacy and “Roma’s” themes of family and how they change through the circumstances of their society, the loss of innocence, the passing of time, Whitmire 2 how fragile life can be and the passing of time can each film a masterpiece worthy of the Oscar for Best Picture.
