  • Message from Dr. Glenda Glover International President, Alphakappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated®
    MESSAGE FROM DR. GLENDA GLOVER INTERNATIONAL PRESIDENT, ALPHAKAPPA ALPHA SORORITY, INCORPORATED® Dear Student/Parent: Time to apply to college! These words strike fear in the hearts of many high school juniors, seniors, and parents alike. Members of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated do not want students and parents to fret or to break out into a cold sweat when thinking about college. We believe the more you know about the college application process, the better prepared you will be to manage the stress and, ultimately, to enroll in college. In my role as a college president, I have encountered so many young people who possess all of the talent to gain admission to college. But I also have discovered that many of - - - - - - - - - - them are would-be, first-generation college students and their parents simply have not been equipped with the tools to help them navigate the college admissions process. That is where we step in. Whether you are a would-be, first-generation college student or you simply need assistance in better understanding how to navigate all of the elements of college admission from the application process to housing and applying for financial aid and scholarships, we want to help you. To do that, we have compiled a comprehensive guide to the college admissions process known as the #CAPSM Toolkit. #CAP SM is an acronym that stands for college admissions process. Through this toolkit, we will demystify the college admissions process and help you gain admission to college and enroll. The #CAPSM Toolkit explores important aspects of the admissions process such as: • How to go about researching schools and creating a short list • An overview of standardized test preparation, registration, and testing • How to write a great essay • The financial aid application process • Who is responsible for which task? • Considerations when deciding which college to attend Research shows that college graduates make more than twice as much as people who do not graduate from college.

Mark Sheridan Dean of the Graduate School December, 2016 Copyright 2016, Dakota Doman This dissertation is in memory of Dr. Oney D. Fitzpatrick, Jr. (1957 – 2015). You furnished the letter of recommendation that proved instrumental in me being accepted into the doctorate program at Texas Tech University. Prior to that, you inspired me as an African American male at a Predominantly White Institution, which is not always the easiest place to find inspiration. However, you exhibited great scholastic abilities, a genuine personality, Christian values, and personified all that is right with higher education. It would have been extremely difficult to complete this journey without your presence in my life. Texas Tech University, Dakota Doman, December 2016 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11).
