Dear Prospective Donor,

We are delighted to announce that the Tennessee State University Honors College is celebrating its 60th anniversary of preparing and graduating outstanding scholars and leaders to impact their professions and the world. This celebration will begin with hosting the 12th Annual University wide Honors Convocation on March 19, 2024. The Honors Convocation is the university celebration of distinguished undergraduates from all University disciplines. We will recognize top graduating Honors seniors, outstanding members of honor societies, Dean’s List students, and President’s List students with cumulative grade point averages of 4.0. Almost 3,000 students will be honored for their outstanding academic achievement and academic success. They will be celebrated by the President, Vice Presidents, Deans, Faculty, staff, distinguished guests, alumni, parents, and our virtual audience. We would like to invite you to be one of our honored sponsors for this auspicious occasion.

The Annual Honors Convocation brings together the University and the Nashville community to celebrate undergraduate scholarship. We would like to give you an opportunity to partner with us in celebrating the best and brightest students at TSU who are filled with the hopes and dreams of making a difference in their careers to impact the world. Your participation in this Honors Convocation through sponsorship and/or your advertisement in the electronic program booklet will ensure access to high-quality Honors students from all the disciplines.

If you would like to be a Convocation sponsor or to purchase an ad in the electronic program booklet, please complete the enclosed partnership form and return your payment to the address provided. My prayer is that with God’s help, and the financial gifts from our beloved community, our students can continue to thrive, finish what they started, and achieve their academic and future goals. We appreciate your support and look forward to partnering with you.
