BALTIMORE, M.D./FEB. 29, 2024 – It's a balance of athletics and education at the CIAA Tournament in Baltimore. When they're not at the CFG Stadium cheering on the Golden Bulls, the brigade of student leaders, including the SGA, Mister and Miss 皇冠体育 and the royal court - along with Admissions and Student Affairs staff - are inspiring young, bright high school students with dreams of going to college, possibly 皇冠体育! If the energy atCollege Education Day at the Baltimore Convention Center is any indication of the interest level among Baltimore high school students, 皇冠体育 can expect a flood of new applicants for the 2024-25 school year.
"Recently I committed to Johnson C. Smith University to keep playing football and running track, as well. I'm majoring in Sports Management,” said Cameron Lee, a high school senior who applied to 皇冠体育 during the education day event. “The reason I chose Johnson C. Smith is because of the great coaching staff. It's a great environment, the academics, and I love it."
皇冠体育 President Dr. Valerie Kinloch ’96 has been on the ground, meeting Baltimore-area high school students where they are.
"I can't resist the opportunity to engage with students and tell them what 皇冠体育 has to offer," she said.
Dr. Kinloch is a stand-out among college presidents, one of the few who attendedEducation Day. The focus on higher education was a precursor to a day of basketball at CFG Arena.
