All rising juniors at the University of Miami have only seen Black Student Government President’s back-to-back. That’s the flex - congratulations Madam Prez (64) and thankful to have been able to serve as the 63rd SG Prez!
Today is a historic day for @univmiami. We celebrated the legacy and impact of two distinguished Black members of our community, H.T. Smith and Harold Long, by naming our student services building in their honor. A first for the University, but not the last.
Today, we’re shining a spotlight on our amazing student government president @LandonColes who says, “I have been inspired not only to interrogate the world as it exists, but to imagine a better one.” Visit https://t.co/1iekJwDJx2 to read more about Coles’ experience at the U.
Our student athletes contribute so much to our institution (many of them being my good friends) and deserve our support year-round - not just when we need votes. Let’s keep the momentum going!
Someone asked me how it felt to stand up there on that stage addressing the University as president.
My answer: “Right. It felt right.”
And I’m just getting warmed up… #UniversityofMiami
@davidsaulacosta@univmiami Thank you so much - it is an honor to be able to serve for this next year! I am looking forward to being able to have a positive impact on our community!
