Two of our former Presidents stopped by the other day to check in and support our current students by purchasing a shirt.

Destiny (nursing) is currently at @NIUlive and Morgan (sociology/marketing) is at @northcentralcol and they are doing great work on campus! 😁

[SteelmenBSU @SteelmenBSU]

@Dwavvvyyy We got you! They’re $18. Send the money with your sister!

[SteelmenBSU @SteelmenBSU]

Our shirts are in! 😮

See Mr. Coatney (810), Mr. Crim (880) or any of our BSU members to purchase one! 🗣

All proceeds support our students. 🙏🏾

Yesterday, we heard from mental health advocate, and the CEO of ‘Future of SEL’, Future Cain. She gave us a lot to think about and consider!

We have two more events for #BlackHistoryMonth… please join us next week for a discussion on HBCUs and PWIs. 🏫

The following week we will have an open mic! 🎤

We had the pleasure of hearing from the great Dr. @TennilleNAllen of @LewisUniversity during our meeting yesterday. She left us all thinking and pondering our existence and history from a Black sociological perspective!

Today’s peace rally was full of energy! We almost forgot how cold it was outside! 🥶

[SteelmenBSU @SteelmenBSU]

One of our former Presidents stopped by today! Kania (c/o ‘19) is currently enrolled in @SIUE’s nursing program and is doing great academically. She’s also a leader on campus who’s involved in various clubs. We’re proud! 🔴⚫️🟢

[SteelmenBSU @SteelmenBSU]

We’re doing it again before Thanksgiving break! Join us after school this Tuesday for a rally and help spread peace and positivity before we depart for the week. We will meet after school and conclude by 4pm! ✌🏾🦃 ✊🏾

BSU & Club Puentes was well-represented at @1340WJOL yesterday. Paulina did a great job exposing the Will County community to what post-remote school is like for our students; as well as the type of support they need during these difficult times.

She was amazing! 👏🏾

Here’s a highlight reel from Tuesday’s Peace Rally. 😃 #CentralPeaceRally

[SteelmenBSU @SteelmenBSU]

We are extremely grateful for the support our community showed us, and the clubs we collaborated with, for our Peace Rally. From the teachers, admin, community members and elected officials, it’s clear that we have a great support system.

Here’s a #CentralPeaceRally thread…
