MESSAGE

Fall 2021 Dear Xavier Alumni and Friends,

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. ‑Isaiah 41:10 Since March of 2020, we at Xavier have, as have all of you, gone through a period that has tested us, challenged our way of teaching and learning, and created unforeseen obstacles. The unexpected COVID-19 pandemic, the turmoil of a hotly contested presidential election, and the renewed calls for social justice, continue to challenge our nation. You can be certain that, through it all, Xavier has been guided by the mission transmitted by St. Katharine Drexel: to promote a just and humane society. This guidance remains as important today as it was when the University was founded in 1925. In this issue of Xavier Gold, we will share with you the University’s journey through the pandemic and its readiness to embrace the future, as we continue to defy odds and overcome those external factors that test us, as we focus on the mission . I urge you to pay close attention to our 2020 Honor Roll of Donors. Despite the uncertain times, those listed made a commitment to Xavier and to the students following in your footsteps. More than ever your support and generosity are vital to our mission: to educate our students who persevere and exemplify the gift that Xavier is to the world. Xavier University is well and is succeeding in its calling. Our reputation of excellent education and service to community and nation continues to grow. New academic programs have launched as Xavier students continue to exceed expectations, and partners come to join in our work. I thank you for your continued support. Remain steadfast in your commitment and prayers as we endeavor to live our founding mission each day. Sincerely,

Reynold Verret President

Highlights Xavier University of Louisiana raised $1,022,614 during its annual online, social-media driven fundraising event – Give. Love. Xavier Day – held in April 2021. This year’s theme was “For the Love of Xavier.” The Office of Alumni Relations launched the Give Love Xavier initiative nine years ago to strengthen alumni engagement. “Need based financial aid is a core necessity for the majority of our students and will continue to be the lifeline for students to remain part of the Xavier academic community,” said President Dr. Reynold Verret. “The success of this year’s Give Love Xavier fundraising event shows that we are united in our shared mission to follow in the footsteps of our founder St. Katharine Drexel and ensure that our students get the education they deserve.”

Xavier has received a historic $20 million-dollar donation – the University’s largest private gift to date from an individual. Xavier was among nearly 120 organizations to benefit from a cumulative $1.7 billion contribution by MacKenzie Scott centered on combating racial and gender inequality. The gift has provided Xavier with a unique opportunity to expand its scholarship endowment and make other much needed investments to sustain its mission. Xavier was one of 10 institutions awarded a $5 million grant from Google, designed to help create pathways and opportunities for increased diverse representation in the STEM industry. The one-time unrestricted grant will provide the University with financial support for scholarships, technological infrastructure support, career readiness, and curriculum development. Ochsner and Xavier have partnered to develop two new graduate degree programs in genetic counseling and health informatics. The academic programs will include classroom instruction at Xavier and clinical rotations at Ochsner Health facilities. Xavier is the first university in Louisiana to offer a genetic counseling training program and provides the only such program based at an HBCU. Genetic counselors advise individuals and families affected by or at risk for genetic disorders and support them in making informed healthcare decisions. Health informatics professionals identify, capture, organize and interpret health data to develop effective healthcare processes and solutions, subsequently improving the delivery of healthcare services.

Xavier now offers a master’s degree option in public health, successfully making the University the first HBCU in the state to offer the program. The first eight graduates of the program received their master’s degrees during the 2020 commencement ceremony. The MPH program, launched in 2018 as part of a strategy to provide students with another option in the health sciences, exposes enrollees to advanced public health policy, advanced epidemiology, and a host of other health promotion and behavioral sciences framed around the advancement of health equity. Xavier and the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston have partnered to establish an initiative that will allow qualified students to participate in a collaborative Medical Track Program that facilitates assured acceptance into the School of Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. The Xavier-Baylor partnership was established to build on the inclusive environment at Baylor and provide students, including historically underrepresented minorities, with a smooth transition from undergraduate programs to more advanced graduate programs.

Xavier has entered into a new partnership with the Duquesne University School of Law to offer graduates a clear pathway to further their education and pursue careers in the legal field. The partnership positions both universities to continue their traditions and commitments to academic excellence, diversity, equity, and inclusion in education. Duquesne’s Bar Preparation program is ranked No. 9 in the country by National Jurist.

Lehigh University’s College of Business and Xavier have partnered for a unique “4+1” joint program which will enable Liberal Arts or STEM field majors to enter Lehigh’s MS in Management program, enabling students to earn a master’s degree in just 10 months. The combination of Liberal Arts or STEM with business training will further enhance each graduate’s workplace readiness as they enter various industries. Accepted XULA students will be guaranteed generous scholarships in support of their graduate educational endeavors. Students now have another option in the College of Arts and Sciences with the institution’s launch of a Digital Humanities minor, which is designed to teach students the skills of the humanities: critical thinking, persuasive communication, and engagement with humanist subject matter and digital platforms prevalent in humanist institutions such as museums, social justice nonprofits, and arts and cultural foundations. The 18-credit hour minor is grounded in data science and social justice.

Xavier was awarded a $250,000 grant from Diageo North America to create a permanent endowment fund and provide financial aid grants to talented students across different disciplines and majors. African American students from the New Orleans area will be prioritized to receive scholarship funds through this endowment, which is focused on building opportunities to develop future leaders and help shape a more equitable society. Diageo NA will also provide internship opportunities.

Xavier was been named a Fulbright Historically Black College and University Institutional Leader by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs in recognition of its noteworthy participation in a wide range of Fulbright Program activities that benefit their faculty, students, and administrators. This includes advising their U.S. students, welcoming foreign students, scholars, and Foreign Language Teaching Assistants, and building connections through International Education Administrators seminars.

Xavier was among 17 HBCUs chosen to participate in the NBCU Academy, a new and innovative multiplatform journalism training and development program for minority students created by the NBCUniversal News Group. The initiative, supported by a $500,000 grant for 2021, includes a curated onsite curriculum for a hands-on learning experience with world-class NBCU News Group journalists and funding for accredited journalism programs and scholarships.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Foundation and Xavier entered into a cooperative agreement providing $420,000 to develop mitigation strategies to reduce and prevent the disproportionate COVID-19 transmission among African Americans in the New Orleans metropolitan area. The New Orleans area experienced one of the highest rates of mortality from COVID-19 in the state of Louisiana and the nation.

The Center for Equity, Justice and the Human Spirit was awarded a $500,000 grant from Gilead Sciences to establish the Gilead Sciences Social Justice Scholars Program as part of its $10 million Racial Equity Community Impact Fund designed to support high-impact organizations working to tackle racial inequalities and training the next generation of leaders.

TikTok awarded $1 million in funding to Xavier as a part of its ongoing commitment to healthcare workers and academic institutions that serve underrepresented students with programs focused on public health professions in the medical and healthcare fields. The social media platform donated a total of $10 million to 10 academic institutions that serve minority students in support of undergraduate and graduate scholarships for students pursuing medical careers or other healthrelated fields, helping to ensure the success of future Black, Latinx, and Indigenous health heroes.

Xavier partnered with Hope Enterprise Corporation to launch the Deep South Economic Mobility Collaborative (DSEMC) along with six other cities and eight other HBCUs. This new partnership includes a commitment from Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses of up to $130 million to stabilize and strengthen underserved and under-resourced businesses and communities devastated by the economic crisis.

The annual U.S. News College Guide once again recognized Xavier as one of the nation’s top HBCUs, ranking it No.3 in its 2021 edition. Spelman College and Howard University held the top two spots. Among all U.S. colleges and universities, the Guide ranked Xavier 16th out of 92 schools in its grouping of the 12-state “Best Regional Universities – South,” one spot up from last year’s ranking. Schools are considered regional universities if they offer a full range of undergraduate programs and some master’s programs, but few doctoral programs.

Dr. Charity Clay, an assistant Sociology professor in the Division of Social & Behavioral Sciences, was named a William T. Grant Foundation Scholar for her designation as a promising early-career researcher. She was one of six educators selected to receive up to $350,000 distributed over five years for their research. Her grant-winning research analyzes the impacts of what she has conceptualized as “Systemic Police Terrorism” and seeks to expand our understanding of police brutality beyond individual acts to understand the systems and mechanisms that enable police terrorism.

RESILIENT Xavier weathers the pandemic and paves the way for others to follow

A TWIST OF FATE Ironically, just prior to publication of this issue, Xavier found itself facing yet another unexpected challenge – this one in the form of Hurricane Ida, one of the most destructive storms ever to hit Louisiana. Fortunately, unlike in Hurricane Katrina some 16 years ago to the date (August 29), the University was spared wide-spread damage. The City of New Orleans, however, as did most of the southeastern part of the state, saw its electrical and water services devastated. Facing an unknown duration of such conditions – estimated to last several weeks – University administrators made the proactive decision to move all residential students who had not previously evacuated to Dallas TX, from where they could safely return home. Remote instruction resumed in an asynchronous, or selfpaced, form Sept. 7. The campus reopened for inperson classes on Sept. 20. Yet again, Xavier demonstrated its resilience.

8 | XAVIER GOLD

In the nearly 100 years since its founding by St. Katharine Drexel and the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament (SBS), Xavier University of Louisiana has faced several watershed moments where its essential mission – perhaps even its very continued existence – was challenged by difficult circumstances or unforeseen events.

Most notable was Hurricane Katrina in 2005, which caused such extensive infrastructure damage to both the campus and the Greater New Orleans area that the University was forced to close for nearly six months. Other game-changing events included the 1955 death of St. Katharine – which cut off nearly all the University’s then financial support – and the 1968 decision by the SBS Order to turn over leadership of Xavier to a then young, untried Dr. Norman C. Francis and a predominantly lay Board of Trustees. In each of those situations, Xavier found a way forward. Such was the case again in March 2020, when yet another unexpected challenge reared its ugly head – this one in the form of the Covid-19 pandemic. As it eventually played out, the University was forced to improvise fall 2020 and spring/summer 2021 under a hybrid instructional modality and a modified academic calendar. Presented with another set of unprecedented circumstances that required an equally unprecedented reaction, Xavier responded with a transformation which not only allowed the institution to survive, but to emerge even stronger. The complete story of this undertaking would take a novel. This is the short version.

D-Day The declaration by Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards that effectively shut down the state and the Xavier campus came in mid-March of 2020, but fortuitously the University was not caught unawares. Having followed the progression of the virus from China to other areas of the world via news reports, in January President C. Reynold Verret wisely pulled his cabinet together to discuss the future. “We said, what if the virus makes it to the U.S. and to Louisiana, what do we already have in place and what do we need to add that would allow us to stay in operation,” recalled Verret. The result was that over the next three months contingency plans were formulated to address such issues as communications, student housing and health precautions, remote learning, and a myriad of other concerns.

Staying in Touch

Housing/ Health Concerns

Xavier’s Marketing and Communications Department, led by its director Ashley Irvin, stepped up to the first challenge by designing and implementing what turned out to be an award-winning digital campaign. Known as One Safe XULA, the campaign kept students, faculty, staff, and parents informed as to best health practices, reassured them of an eventual safe return to campus, and shared positive news and stories to keep them uplifted during isolated times. The campaign included vibrant, branded infographics, a COVID-19 landing page, feature stories, and a series of instructional and inspirational videos featuring President Verret and other prominent Xavierites.

Limiting campus access to commuting students was easy enough: turns out college students – much like their adult counterparts – would prefer to work from home anyway.

Through it all, the University remained transparent, responsible, and strategic in implementing polished messaging which resulted in the development of a new culture at Xavier, where everyone – students, faculty, and staff – held each other accountable and remained diligent in enforcing the rules and policies put in place to protect the community. “Our priority was to reach our students wherever they were,” said Patrice Bell, Vice President of Administration and Chief of Staff. “The One Safe XULA campaign served to ensure that the entire Xavier community understood that they are not alone and that Xavier, their home away from home, would return in the fall.” The One Safe XULA campaign was seen and shared by more than 50 million people world-wide, and the team presented the One Safe XULA campaign to more than 1,000 healthcare and higher education professionals as part of an online event hosted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The challenge then facing Office of Student Affairs Vice President Curtis Wright and his staff was assisting those residential students trying to return home as well as providing resources to any students who, upon leaving campus, would lack resources which would allow them to continue their classwork. They responded by assisting students with travel arrangements and helping supply hundreds of laptops. Then there was the health and safety of those residential students who had no way of getting home mid-semester. With no on-campus option for downsizing the remaining students into the single-ocupancy rooms suggested by local, state, and federal guidelines – and with 200 students already in private rooms at the University of New Orleans due to the high demands for on-campus housing – the answer had to be found elsewhere. Curtis credits three of his staff with finding a workable solution: Chermele Christy, who arranged to move some 600 students to rooms at the Hilton Riverside; Judy Bracy, who shepherded the Community Health Ambassadors who served as peer educators on COVID transmission and reduction strategies; and Darryl Keller, who coordinated shuttle services and virtual programming. The University also put in place rigid health protocols for those who remained on campus, including mask-wearing, physical distancing, hand hygiene guidelines, testing, and participation in a Daily Wellness Screener.

Fall 2021 | 9

Beginning in fall 2020, returning students were required to submit a negative testing result to Student Health Services. Students who tested positive to the virus were required to start the semester virtually while isolating at home. Students were regularly re-tested during the semester to track patterns and respond to any potential health threats. As a result, the University’s overall infection rate has remained below two percent. “What we witnessed was remarkable sacrifice, innovation, and adaptability,” said Verret. “The overwhelmingly positive response to our efforts to provide a safe environment is a testament to the spirit and qualities of Xavier students who persist and succeed regardless of the obstacles.” The regular testing of Xavier students, faculty, and staff was aided by the support of the Thermo Fisher company and the Bill Gates Foundation, which provided instruments, kits, and testing infrastructure, and funding for a campus COVID testing lab, respectively. In addition Xavier was designated as one of eight regional testing sites for Fisher’s “Just Project” for Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), testing student samples from Grambling, SUNO, and Dillard. Xavier further extended a hand to its neighboring Gert Town, Hollygrove, and Dixon communities by partnering with LCMC Health, the New Orleans Health Department, and Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center to launch the first mobile community testing site bringing COVID-19 testing to individuals and families that are medically vulnerable. As the campus fully reopened this August, appropriate precautions were still the order of the day. Returning students, barring extenuating circumstances, were required to be vaccinated for the virus while masking was mandatory both indoors and outdoors.

Virtual/ Remote Learning When the University began its crisis table-top sessions to deal with pandemic in January 2020, it quickly became evident that a major missing piece of the puzzle was Xavier’s immediate ability to take its instruction remote. The percentage of faculty who had experience with online instruction was frightfully low. The short-term fix to finish out the

spring 2020 semester was a hastily put together creative mixture of the video teleconferencing software program Zoom and email, but a longerterm solution was needed. “Some faculty were already using our D2L (Desire to Learn) Brightspace platform to share class materials and create quizzes for their students, but most of the faculty had no firsthand experience in building entire courses on the platform,” said Dr. Jason Todd, Associate Director at the Center for the Advancement of Teaching and Faculty Development (CAT+FD). “We knew we had to act fast to equip our people with the tools and training they would need.” With that goal in mind, CAT+FD and the Information Technology Center teamed up to create a targeted quick-start training course, and the University offered incentives to faculty who successfully converted at least one of their courses into a fully online synchronous course using the Brightspace platform. The training covered everything from the most basic user journeys, such as logging in and setting up student grade books, to more advanced capabilities, such as accessing analytics data or using release conditions. According to CAT+FD Director Dr. Elizabeth Hammer, Xavier educators passed the test with flying colors, with nearly all the 217 full-time faculty members achieving certification in the foundational capabilities of the Brightspace platform and remote pedagogy by the end of the summer – an outstanding achievement given the tight timeline. Moreover, more faculty now see how the Brightspace platform adds value to their in-person courses. President Verret was quick to credit the success of the transition to the dedication of the faculty. “The enthusiastic response by faculty was essential to sustaining what Xavier is doing,” he said. “I dare say the faculty put in more hours in making remote learning a reality than if we had simply continued to teach face-to-face.”

Pharmacy Research Team Answers Call

THE HEIGHT OF THE PANDEMIC WHICH MARKED THE SUMMER OF 2020, THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (NIH) PUT OUT A CALL TO SCIENTISTS NATIONWIDE FOR RESEARCH ON COVID-19 TESTING.

Not surprisingly, the Xavier College of Pharmacy, whose mission is to reduce health disparities, answered the call, focusing on a vaccine hesitancy in the African American community. “The initial call for research was for COVID-19 testing, but we are clinicians, so we knew the real issue down the line would be vaccinations and vaccine-hesitancy,” recalled Dr. Sara Al-Dahir, a Clinical Professor in the Division of Clinical and Administrative Sciences. “We knew we needed to be proactive, and it turns out we were one of the few groups to do so.” Al-Dahir’s team ‑ which included Clinical Associate Professors Dr. Christopher Gillard and Brittany Singleton, Clinical Assistant Professor Martha Earls, and several pharmacy students – analyzed the relationship between vaccines and the African American Community with the ultimate objective of increasing vaccine uptake among communities of color. This was accomplished by conducting a series of surveys to determine community concerns about the vaccines, and then training pharmacists and other community outreach to communicate with patients to address those concerns. “We had a vaccine that was 90 percent effective, but most of the African American population wasn’t interested,” said Gillard. “That’s the issue we had to address.”

Among the findings were that African Americans – who have disproportionately limited access to healthcare and information, who suffer the most from underlying conditions that make them even more vulnerable to the virus, and who have been subjected to historical mistreatment – had an underlying mistrust of the nation’s health care systems. The results of the research – which was supported by a $958,000 grant from NIH obtained with the assistance of College of Pharmacy Dean Dr. Kathleen Kennedy and Special Assistant to the President Dr. Gene D’Amour – was wellreceived. Among the hundreds of proposals submitted nationwide to the NIH, only three institutions/teams were focused on the topic of vaccine hesitancy. As a result, Xavier was invited to present its research findings to the Biden administration. “We are happy to share that our project was uniquely situated to be successful because of Xavier’s longstanding position with the community,” said Al-Dahir. “Our relationship with the New Orleans community as clinicians and advocates for health equity was instrumental in building the trust around this critical issue of vaccine hesitancy.”

Class of 2020

From Front Lines to Graduation and the Future

Not only did De’Lacy Lewis take on two majors at Xavier, but she successfully completed her programs all while assisting with COVID-19 efforts on the front lines. She graduated with a BS in Pre-Med Biology and a BA in Spanish. De’Lacy’s parents were not able to attend college, but her mother operated her own daycare business and her father worked as a plant supervisor for thirty years. Their hard work set an example that she wanted to follow. It was not long before her interest in medicine and language sparked. “I became interested in obstetrics and gynecology early. I loved to watch labor and delivery shows! It was crazy to me that women have the power to give life to another person – another soul,“ she recalled. “That meant a lot to me. I was able to see a few live births doing medical shadowing, and I knew it was what I wanted to do.” She credits former Xavier professor Dr. Karen Becnel Moore for inspiring her to add Spanish as a double major and then later to study abroad in Peru for two months. As the current health care emergency began to emerge in the U.S., De’Lacy was quick to realize that people of color were being affected by COVID-19 at a much higher rate than any other race, due largely to a lack of diversity in health care among a multitude of other issues. During her final semester at Xavier, her passion for medicine and helping others extended all the way to the front lines during the initial COVID-19 outbreak. She served as a medical scribe working alongside doctors for hours dealing with patients, handling lab work, and other documentation necessary to facilitate the hospital’s processes. She is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in biological science. From there she plans to attend medical school and pursue her dream of working as an OBGYN.

One area where transitioning to remote learning was less dramatic was the College of Pharmacy, where most professors already had their courses available online to some extent, even labs. It was a different story, however, regarding its clinical rotation program, the vehicle through which pharmacy students receive valuable in-service experience at local hospitals, retail pharmacies, and various other health outlets. Those 1,740 hours are also a non-negotiable standard set forth by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education and a prerequisite for the Louisiana state pharmacy exam. “When it became clear that the hospitals and nursing homes would not be able to accommodate our students, it put us – indeed, all pharmacy schools across the country – into a serious bind,” said Dr. Kathleen Kennedy, long-time dean of the College. She said while retail pharmacies remained open and provided some relief, it came with a potential health risk to participating students. The situation was not as challenging for students in their final year (pending 2020 graduates), as most had already earned significant rotation hours prior to the lockdown. It was more problematic for prospective 2021 grads. The solution was a creative mix of retail pharmacy experience, online patient consultations with senior center and hospital patient reviews, simulations, and virtual meetings. “It took a concerted effort, but I am pleased to say we were able to make accommodations which allowed our students to meet all their requirements,” said Kennedy. That was pretty much the case University-wide, and certainly no one was happier about it than the 548 graduates in 2020 and the 584 graduates this past May.

Full Steam Ahead Despite having to deal with the many challenges posed by the pandemic, Xavier leadership never took its eye off the future. Several new academic programs and partnerships with other prestigious colleges and universities – many of which had been in the works for several years – became realities, opening new options for undergraduates and graduates in the health sciences, law, business, and the humanities.

well as a host of other health promotion and behavioral sciences framed around the advancement of health equity. Xavier also announced several other new partnerships, all designed to provide graduates with additional career training and options. A collaboration with the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston will allow three qualified Xavier students to participate in a Medical Track Program that facilitates assured acceptance into its School of Medicine. The initiative builds on Baylor’s commitment to inclusiveness while offering Xavier students a smooth transition from undergraduate programs to more advanced graduate programs. Xavier had previously also established early assurance programs with six other institutions including Tulane University, the University of Rochester, St. Louis University, the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth, Michigan State University College of Human Medicine, and Penn State University. Xavier also announced a new affiliation with the Duquesne University School of Law which offers graduates a clear pathway to careers in the legal profession, solidifying the traditions and commitments of both schools to academic excellence, diversity, equity, and inclusion in education. Duquesne’s Bar Preparation program is ranked No. 9 in the country by National Jurist. Finally, Lehigh University’s College of Business and Xavier have partnered for a unique “4+1” joint program which opens the door for liberal arts or STEM field majors to enter Lehigh’s 10-month master’s program in management. The combination of liberal arts or STEM with business training will further enhance each graduate’s workplace readiness in numerous industries. Accepted students are guaranteed generous scholarships. “Creating new opportunities that are altogether rewarding, challenging, and innovative for our students remains one of our top priorities at Xavier,” said Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Anne McCall, also noting that the establishment of these new partnerships speak to the exceptional academic quality of Xavier graduates.

Xavier partnered with Ochsner to develop two new graduate degree programs in genetic counseling and health informatics, with Xavier providing classroom instruction and Ochsner holding clinical rotations at their extensive health facilities. Genetic counselors provide information, advice, and support to individuals and families affected by or at risk for genetic disorders, while health informatics professionals identify, capture, organize and interpret health data to develop effective healthcare processes and solutions. 2020 also marked the launch of a third graduate offering in partnership with Ochsner, the Physician Assistant Program, which is based in the College of Pharmacy. A new Digital Humanities minor – a curriculum grounded in data science and social justice – also made its debut. The spring 2020 commencement saw the first eight graduates of the University’s new master’s degree program in Public Health receive their degrees. The program, which welcomed its inaugural cohort in Fall 2018, centers on advanced public health policy and advanced epidemiology as

Additional Funding

As life-altering as it has been, the pandemic was not the only major issue of the times. Social unrest and the quest for social justice has also swept through the U.S. Because of its stellar reputation as a leading educator of young African Americans, Xavier found itself well-positioned to receive the support from those looking to find real solutions. Foremost among those was a historic $20 million-dollar donation from MacKenzie Scott, part of a cumulative $1.7 billion contribution to some 120 organizations. The largest private donation from an individual that Xavier has ever received, it has provided the University with a unique opportunity to expand student scholarships, endow new faculty positions, and address other priorities needed to sustain its mission. Verret said the unrestricted monies came at an opportune moment, when the University was looking for ways to increase student financial support in light of the fact that many families – and many students themselves – were facing economic hardships due to lost wages. He said that making it possible for students to remain in school was imperative. Additional substantial funding – further solidifying the University’s financials going forward -- came via several other sources: from Google ($5 million to support scholarships, technological infrastructure support, career readiness, and curriculum development in STEM); from TikTok ($1 million to support programs in the health professions}; from Gilead Sciences ($500,000 to establish the Center for Equity, Justice and the Human Spirit’s Gilead Sciences Social Justice Scholars program); from NBCUniversal ($500,000 for a new and innovative multiplatform journalism training and development program for minority students);

and Diageo North America ($250,000 to provide financial aid grants to talented, local African American students). “These gifts represent a remarkable demonstration of support and encouragement for Xavier and its mission, and a reminder that what we do is important for our global community,” said Verret in expressing the University’s gratitude. “These gifts will enhance the university’s capacity to educate in the medical sciences, pharmacy, law, the arts, and the social sciences.”

A Bright Future

With its vastly enhanced ability for online instruction, new academic programs and partnerships, and much needed financial support, Xavier has indeed much going for it. Perhaps the most positive sign for Xavier’s future is the interest shown by perspective students. After a slight decline in overall enrollment to around 3,200 last fall – mainly attributable to pandemic-related health concerns and financial stresses – all indications are that interest in attending HBCUs in general, and Xavier in particular, is substantial. Leadership was optimistic that enrollment would see significant growth this fall. “Xavier University is as strong and as vibrant as it has ever been,” said Verret, “and I am enthusiastic about the future – as far as I can foresee it.” A wise and necessary hedge, as who could have foreseen the events of the past two years.

Class of 2021 20-Year-Old Twins Head to Graduate School Twin sisters Jordyn and Morgan Jackson have always been a little bit ahead of schedule, and now that the two 20-year-olds have completed their undergraduate studies, they are more than ready to ready to start the next phase of their careers. The sisters came to Xavier in 2018 from North Houston Early College, where they had graduated at the age of 17 with both a high school diploma and an associate college degree. This fall Jordyn, who earned a BS in accounting at Xavier, will enter the University of Missouri-Columbia’s graduate program in accounting. Morgan, who earned a BA in mass communication, will pursue a Master’s in journalism. Their accelerated advancement is a testament to their respective work ethics, especially considering the severe limitations imposed by the pandemic. They have already built impressive resumes that will lead to more opportunities. At Xavier Jordyn was a Resident Assistant, INROADS scholar, and Executive Leadership Council scholar. On top of that, she served three internships with a prestigious accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Morgan, a member of the National Pan-Hellenic Council and National Millennial & Generation Z Community, is already a published writer and worked as Marketing & Communication Specialist for the Center for Minority Health & Health Disparities Research & Education within the College of Pharmacy. “It’s never too early to start working on you,’ advises Jordyn. “While you are sleeping and procrastinating, there is someone else who is always working 50 times harder. They are on their grind and working to be the best they can be.” “Seize every opportunity and always present your best self,” adds Morgan. “You never know who you are going to meet or see. When you walk around, you are your own brand.” Now, Jordan and Morgan are preparing for the next opportunity that awaits them. “All of our lives we have been together,” Jordyn posted on LinkedIn. “Now we will be entering separate educational pathways to make our impact on the world.”

Expansion, Excellence Take Athletics to New Heights By Ed Cassiere XULA Associate Athletics Director for Strategic Communications

For Xavier athletics, recent sport expansion and excellence have not been mutually exclusive. During the past two seasons Xavier has added four teams to its intercollegiate offerings to increase the University’s total to a schoolrecord 13. During the 2019-20 academic year, co-ed competitive cheer made its debut, while women’s indoor track and field competed for the first time since 2004. This past season softball made its debut, and baseball returned for the first time since 1960. The results for those four newbies ranged from impressive to . . . wow! As a result, XULA won the Thomas Howell Cup, the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference’s (GCAC) all-sports award, for the fifth consecutive year and the 10th time in the last 11 years. XULA’s collection of 2020-21 championships at the conference and unaffiliated group level totaled nine, equaling a school record. Baseball’s resurrection included a 27-11 record and a second-place finish at the Black College World Series. The Gold Rush also were one victory from a bid to NAIA nationals. Eleven straight wins from March 7 to April 3 helped XULA climb to No. 1 in the blackcollegenines.com small-school rankings. In the same site’s HBCU small-school awards, left-handed freshman Juwan Fitch was named Pitcher of the Year, and Adrian Holloway earned Coach of the Year honors.

Softball, though it finished 8-13, started strongly by winning 2-of-3 at the Eagle Classic at Texarkana TX. The program opener was a 6-4 victory against Texas A&M-Texarkana, which eventually finished 27-8. Then the Gold Nuggets rallied for a 9-7 victory the next day against Lyon, which received votes in the NAIA preseason coaches’ poll. Baseball’s return and softball’s debut attracted national media coverage — baseball in the New York Times and softball at the website theundefeated.com. Women’s indoor track and field produced two qualifiers for NAIA nationals in 2020 — neither advanced — then scored points at the 2021 national meet and tied for 27th in team scoring. Emerald Carter finished fourth in the 60-meter hurdles, and Jada McBean was fifth in the 60-meter dash. Those performances made Carter and McBean XULA’s first All-Americans indoors since 2004. For the first time in XULA history, both basketball teams won in the first round of NAIA nationals during the same season. Men’s basketball repeated as GCAC Tournament champion for the first time since the early 1980s. Rayshawn Mart was the program’s first

GCAC Player of the Year and — for the first time since Bruce Seals in 1972-73 — a first-team NAIA All-American. Women’s basketball won the GCAC Tournament as a No. 4 seed. The Gold Nuggets outscored Edward Waters 8-0 in the final 3:40 of overtime to earn a 56-52 victory on the Lady Tigers’ home floor in the championship game. Nia Bishop was GCAC Newcomer of the Year. Competitive Cheer, in just its second season, finished fifth at NAIA nationals in 2021 and entered that event No. 1 in the NAIA in average points per meet. It was 10 in a row for volleyball in three areas: GCAC regular-season and tournament championships and automatic bids to NAIA nationals. Semira Blair was Louisiana Newcomer of the Year, and Pat Kendrick shared Coach of the Year — her third state coaching award in four seasons. Blair was GCAC Player of the Year and Newcomer of the Year, and Kennedy Wade was Freshman of the Year. Women’s tennis, ranked third all season in the NAIA coaches’ poll, finished in that position at the national tournament. It was sixth time in the last eight attempts that the Gold Nuggets reached the semifinals.

Fall 2021 | 17

Both tennis teams had affiliate membership in the Southern States Athletic Conference, and the Nuggets won the SSAC regular-season and tournament championships without losing a point in team scoring. Angela Charles-Alfred and Lailaa Bashir repeated as ITA Cup NAIA national doubles champion. Earning All-America were Charles-Alfred, Bashir, Kyra Akinnibi and Farah Baklouti. Valentina Largacha was Louisiana Freshman of the Year, and Alan Green shared Louisiana Coach of the Year. Men’s tennis made its earliest exit at NAIA nationals — a 4-3 roundof-16 loss to Union (Ky.), a team the Gold Rush defeated 4-2 during the regular season — but still finished in the top-10 in the coaches’ poll for the 11th consecutive season at No. 9. Santiago Perez, a junior, shared Louisiana Player of the Year along with Tulane’s Hamish Stewart. Perez, Shaikh Abdullah, Juan Varon and Juan Ramirez earned AllAmerica. Green shared Louisiana Coach of the Year. The men’s track team produced the highest team finish ever by XULA track and field at NAIA nationals — a tie for 21st place outdoors — and produced three All-Americans: Jeffery Frazier, Seth Alexander and Santerrius Barlow. Frazier, seeded 21st in the triple jump, earned the Gold Rush’s second-ever top-3 finish at NAIA outdoor nationals with a school record of 15.16 meters / 49 feet, 9 inches. Frazier finished third. Alexander placed eighth in the triple jump, and Barlow was fourth in the 100. Women’s track returned from NAIA outdoor track and field nationals with five All-Americans — Carter, McBean, Ariel Ford, Alexis Williams

and Ebone Stingley — and a tie for 34th place in team scoring. Williams earned All-America in two events because of her fifth-place finish in the 400-meter dash and a seventh in the 400 relay with Stingley, Ford and McBean. Carter placed sixth in the 100 hurdles. XULA won all 11 track events at the GCAC Championships and set a GCAC meet record for victory margin. Women’s cross country rolled to its 14th consecutive GCAC team championship with a new lineup at the top. Individually freshmen Jalyn Jenkins and Reagan Collins finished 1-3. Men’s cross country finished second at the conference meet. Those results earned Yhann Plummer GCAC Coach of the Year in both women’s cross country and women’s track and field. The GCAC has honored Plummer six times since taking the helm in August 2018. This was XULA’s 40th and final year as a GCAC member. This summer Xavier became a full-time member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) Red River Athletic Conference, whose membership consists primarily of teams in Louisiana and Texas.

New Orleans and Xavier officials came together in late January for a ribbon-cutting ceremony marking the renaming of Jefferson Davis Parkway – the major commercial business and residential thoroughfare which runs alongside the University’s eastern campus boundary – to Norman C. Francis Parkway.

It was an appropriate honor for the nationally renowned educational giant, civil rights pioneer, and during his tenure the nation’s longestserving university president. Francis, 89, sat near the podium in a bowler hat and face mask, as the speakers honored him with accolades. “Dr. Francis always knew that education is the pathway to social justice,” said Xavier University President Dr. Reynold Verret, who succeeded Francis following his retirement in 2015. “His unwavering commitment and courage in the face of adversity spanned 50 plus years at Xavier and taught us all many lessons on how we must serve and lead our community.” Xavier graduates were well-represented among the speakers, including Mayor LaToya Cantrell ‘97, who moved to the city from California specifically to attend Xavier. She presented Francis with a key to the city and a Mayor’s City of Yes Award. “I want to say ‘thank you’ on behalf of the city of New Orleans for the countless lives that Dr. Norman C. Francis has touched,” said Cantrell. “Now it seems that historically black colleges and universities are taking their place on the national stage and the global stage, and that has been a mighty long time coming.” “He is not just a figure of this city; he is a statesman of this country and of this world,” said New Orleans City Council President Jason Williams, who led the push for the name change along with Council Vice President Helena

44 | XAVIER GOLD 44 |

Moreno and Mark Raymond ‘12, a member of the new Street Renaming Commission. The City Council ultimately voted unanimously for the renaming. Moreno concurred. “Dr. Francis’ name replaces a figure emblematic of the power that has sought to suppress African Americans,” she said. “Now, this street will bear the name of a person who has worked to uplift and elevate Black people in New Orleans and also throughout our country.” When it was his time to speak, Francis praised A.P. Tureaud, the New Orleans attorney who vigorously challenged Jim Crow laws. He also applauded his faculty, staff, and students, giving them credit for Xavier’s success. And he spoke with passion on the importance of education and the need to provide better support for teachers. “I am most grateful that the City of New Orleans has named a street in my honor, particularly one that borders Xavier University, an institution that I have called home for more than a halfcentury,” he said. “I am truly honored and humbled by this recognition.” This decision is pivotal and provides a pathway forward to ensure that the entryway to Xavier’s south campus promotes equality and inclusivity as it welcomes generations of future Xavierites and reminds all who traverse it the legacy of those who have come before us.

COMMENCEMENT

‘21

It was a day for both celebration and reflection as Xavier’s newest class of alumni received their degrees during the University’s 94th annual Commencement, held May 8, 2021, in the Convocation Center. Even with separate sessions for the College of Pharmacy and the College of Arts and Sciences, the fact that family members were able to attend this year’s ceremony – albeit in limited numbers – provided a welcome transition towards normalcy after 2020’s totally virtual affair.
