Dear Friends,
If ever there was a time when our nation needed strong leaders, that time is now. If there was ever a time
when our nation needed its colleges and universities to provide an education and programs that
prepare young men and women to lead, that time is now.
Drawing on the historical roles that Atlanta University (1865) and Clark College (1869) played
academically, Clark Atlanta University – celebrating its 20th anniversary – is positioned to prepare the
next generation of leaders to address some of the world’s most pressing issues.
The myriad of problems is all too familiar – war, unemployment, the current economic crisis,
education, healthcare, energy, global warming and a series of political and corporate scandals.
Indeed, leadership is needed to address these problems and find solutions.
Preparing the next generation of leaders is what we do at Clark Atlanta University. In this issue of
CAU Magazine, our cover story examines how CAU is preparing the next generation to adapt to change,
to discover solutions to national and societal issues and develop the skills needed to succeed in a global
marketplace.
“Clark Atlanta University at 20,” offers you a glimpse inside our four Schools (School of Arts and
Sciences, School of Business Administration, School of Education, and Whitney M. Young, Jr., School of
Social Work) and the high-quality education being provided through their leading-edge degree
programs.
In this issue, we published stories inspired by our 20th anniversary theme of “Achieving Greatness:
Honoring our History and Preparing for the Future.” We have developed feature stories that give
readers an insider’s look at the success of CAU’s Title III program over the years, an update on how one
of the five Centers of Excellence is affecting prostate cancer research, an examination of how CAuPRI
is transforming CAU’s operating structure and a closer look at two of CAU’s communications gems,
WCLK-FM and CAU-TV.
Of special note is our continuing effort to share with you the voices of our future leaders. In this
issue, readers will be intrigued to learn what’s on the minds of future journalists as we visited CAU’s
Panther Newspaper.
Finally, an examination of the role of the Division of Research and Sponsored Programs and its vice
president, Dr. Marcus W. Shute, and a profile of Trustee John W. Daniels, Jr., will round out our feature
stories in this issue of CAU Magazine.
Please note a special insert in this issue that contains Clark Atlanta University’s Report on Gifts and Contributions,
which also provides a fiscal summary for 2006-2008, as well as the names of those contributors recorded in our
database.
We trust that the information in the magazine will assure you that CAU is doing its part to ensure
that there is no shortage of people with the capacity to lead.
CAU Magazine will continue to inform and inspire you with articles that tell the story of the
accomplishments and successes of the University throughout its journey over the past 20 years and in
the years to come.
Please enjoy this issue of CAU Magazine. Your thoughts and feedback are always welcome at

P R ESI D E N T ’S LE TTER
Dear CAU Family and Friends,
The New Year finds the CAU Family continuing to recognize the 20th anniversary of the historic consolidation of Atlanta University (1865) and Clark College (1869), which gave rise to Clark Atlanta University.
We continue to build upon CAU’s accomplishments as the only private HBCU classified as a Doctoral/Research-Intensive University by the Carnegie Foundation. CAU is the largest institution in the
Atlanta University Center and largest member institution in the UNCF, and the
University again takes its place among national academic institutions ranked by
U.S. News and World Report.
With the support of alumni and friends and the hard work of faculty and staff,
Clark Atlanta University remains financially sound and looks forward to a bright
future of growth, progress, internal development and ultimately, greatness.
However, as we are all aware, the U.S. economy is experiencing historic and monumental challenges that have touched many colleges and universities directly or
indirectly. Clark Atlanta University is bracing for a difficult economic period along
with other higher education institutions across the country. We bear witness to the
decline of the stock market, the failure of critical industries, the collapse of many
businesses large and small, and the continuing decline in the economic efficacy of
the American family.
The current trends taking place in our nation’s economy threaten to derail the
hopes and dreams that our students and their families have worked so hard to actualize over many years. In addition to their own reduced resources to support a child’s education, many of
our families are experiencing reduced loan eligibility and less access to loan funds. These factors have had
a critical impact on the University as several major markets from which we generate our student body continue to experience consecutive layoffs and closure in critical industry.
Clark Atlanta University is currently experiencing an “enrollment emergency,” and as a tuition-driven
institution, the current downturn in student enrollment is having a measurable impact on the University.
Despite these overall difficulties, the institution continues to be fiscally sound and on the upside of a
significant financial recovery, making Clark Atlanta University a very sound investment in the futures of
young people whom we are preparing to lead this nation as evidenced in the articles contained in this
issue of CAU Magazine.
We are committed to moving forward in planning for the growth and advancement of the University.
We are taking a very proactive and aggressive course of action to recruit students locally, regionally,
nationally, and abroad through implementing a comprehensive enrollment management plan.
We will proceed aggressively with the CAuPRI process, our University-wide initiative to place greater emphasis on service and responsiveness to all of our constituencies with the total integration of the BANNER
system as the tool to strengthen overall systems and processes.
CAU’s advancement efforts will also continue unabated as we realize this is a crucial time to re-engage
alumni and cultivate relationships and opportunities that could prove fruitful when the economy
rebounds. We are preparing a more efficient academic institution for when that time comes.
The Board of Trustees, administration, faculty, staff and all remain collectively committed to providing students with exceptional academic programs and excellent preparation for successful transition into
careers or graduate or professional degree programs.
Please enjoy this special issue of CAU Magazine and continue to support the University in its pursuit of
greatness. Together, we will achieve our vision of national leadership in higher education.

Dr. Ralph Ellis, Professor, Department of Religion and Philosophy, has
completed a new book that is now
available. The book, coauthored with
Dr. Natika Newton (Professor, Nassau
Community College), is called How the
Mind Uses the Brain. The book focuses
on how emotional processes in the
brain are able to create the conditions
needed for consciousness to occur by

preparing the organism for action in
relation to its environment. In the coauthors’ theory, consciousness does
not result from the receiving of perceptual information but from the body’s
self-organizing tendency to act relative
to possible situations. Also, the new
issue of Philosophy in The Contemporary
World is a special issue devoted to discussions of Dr. Ellis’ work. Last year,
another philosophy journal, The Pluralist, devoted a special issue to his work.
Dr. Issifu Harruna, Professor, Department of Chemisty, coauthored a paper
titled, “Fullerene and Ruthenium Dual
End-Functionalized Thermosensitive
Polymers: Synthesis, Characterization,
Electrochemical Properties, and SelfAssembly” in the Journal of Materials

Joan McCarty, Instructor, Department of Speech Communication and
Theatre Arts, is serving as the stage
manager for the production, “Secrets of
a Soccer Mom.” The comedy focuses on
three women who discover a great deal
about themselves and their pasts as
well as uncover secrets while preparing
to play a soccer game with their young
sons. The play runs from January 21 to
March 1, 2009, at Theatre in the Square
in Marietta, Ga. Last summer, Ms.
McCarty also stage managed “Death of
a Salesman,” at Oberlin College in
Ohio. This production featured television and film actor Avery Brooks as
Willy Loman. Ms. McCarty is a member
of Actors’ Equity Association, the
union for professional actors and
stage managers in America. She most
recently directed “Eden,” at Clark
Atlanta University last November.
Dr. Ronald Mickens, Distinguished
Fuller E. Callaway Professor of Physics,
published articles appearing in Journal
of Difference Equations and Applications,
Heat and Mass Transfer, Computers and
Mathematics with Applications, Dynamics
of Continuous, Discrete and Impulsive Systems, and International Journal of Theoretical and Applied Finance, based on
research on nonlinear differential and
difference equations. Dr. Mickens has
accepted an invitation to write a chapter for the e-book Methods for Studying
Partial Difference Equations. It is to be
published in 2009 by Bentham Science
Publishers, which intends to bring
together the contributions of prominent mathematicians working in the
general area of partial difference equations and their applications to numerical schemes.
Dr. Mickens organized and chaired a
session of invited presentations on the
“History and Philosophy of Physics,” at a
meeting of the American Physical Society, held at North Carolina State University last fall. One focus of the session was
counterfactuals and the history/ evolution of physics. Dr. Mickens and his son
Dr. James. W. Mickens, have jointly conducted research in an effort to understand the propagation of periodic
childhood diseases such as measles.
Thus far, their computer simulations
provide preliminary evidence that if the
infection rate has a large enough fluctuation, then the disease can go to extinction. This interesting result might be
useful for explaining data from countries having small total populations.
Dr. Timothy Moore, Assistant Professor and Chair of the Department of
Psychology, is the recipient of a Fulbright Scholars grant for study and
work in Bahia, Brazil. The title of his
project is “African-Centered Psychology
in Bahia.” The purpose of this project
will be to expose his research and teaching experience to a concentration of
students/scholars in Salvador, Brazil.
The outcome of this project will be to
develop an educational initiative to
implement positive social change in
areas where social injustice persists. As a
U.S. Fulbright Fellow, Dr. Moore will
teach two specialty areas: African-Centered Psychology and Basic Neuroscience. In addition, he will conduct
survey-oriented research on AfricanSelf Consciousness. In preparation, he
has taken intensive Portuguese classes,

Humanities, faculty from Emory University and other faculty from The
Atlanta Consortium of Colleges and
Universities, have joined together to
present two traveling exhibits around
the theme, “Motherhood at the Intersection of Race and Class: Resilience in
the Face of Adversity.” The two
exhibits, “Interrupted Life: Incarcerated
Mothers in the United States” and
“Beggars and Choosers: Motherhood is
Not a Class Privilege in America,” are
scheduled to run from January 15 to
March 12, 2009, in the Schatten Gallery
of Emory University’s Woodruff

UNIVERSI T Y EDI TOR AND MEMBER
OF THE CONSOLIDATION STEERING
COMMI TTEE
Some 86 years ago, during the Acting
Presidency of Myron W. Adams (19221923) at Atlanta University (AU),
“There was considerable discussion of a
merger of Atlanta University with Clark
University, but no formal action was
taken” (from James P. Brawley’s The
Clark College Legacy: An Interpretive
History of Relevant Education, 18691975, p. 104). Thus began discussion
that would lead in 1988 to the consolidation, not merger, of Atlanta University
and Clark College (CC), the latter name
having been adopted in 1940. The
Boards of Trustees of the two parent institutions were very careful to avoid using
the word “merger” because of its suggestion that one of the institutions brought
greater gifts to the table of agreement.
Consolidation, it was felt, meant that the
CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE
FALL 2008/ WINTER 2009

two schools entered the agreement with equal strengths, accomplishments and resources.
In fact, a year earlier in 1987, the Boards of Trustees of both
AU and CC authorized an exploration of the possible advantages of closer working arrangements, as some of the benefits of
proximity, which had seemed promising earlier, again became
evident. In 1988, the joint committee submitted its report for
ratification, recommending that the two schools be consolidated as one institution. On June 24, 1988, both Boards agreed
to the consolidation recommendation, and on July 1, 1988,
Clark Atlanta University (CAU) officially came into existence. The new and historic University has inherited the rich
traditions of two independent institutions, connected over the
years by a common heritage, commitment, consortia relationships and location.
Atlanta University and Clark College, through consolidation, preserved the best of the past and present and accepted the
mandate of AU’s motto, “I’ll Find a Way or Make One,” and
of CC’s motto, “Culture for Service.” Both mottos were
retained for CAU and figure prominently in the University’s
seal. The University’s colors (crimson, black, and gray) also
stem from the school colors of the parent institutions: crimson
and gray (AU), and red and black (CC). Efforts to ensure a
smooth consolidation were skillfully handled by members of
the Consolidation Steering Committee, consisting of representatives from the trustees, faculty, staff, alumni, students, and
administration of both schools, and meeting weekly under the
wise leadership of Dr. Vernon Crawford, chair (now deceased),
and Dr. Pearlie Craft Dove, cochair.
As we approach the end of the first decade of the 21st century and celebrate our 20th anniversary as a consolidated university, we acknowledge that much has been accomplished and
much remains to be done, but we are optimistic that through
dedication, hard work and perseverance, we can achieve the
lofty goals of our founding fathers, thereby ensuring that our
University will be second to none.

hen Atlanta University and Clark College
were consolidated in 1988 to form Clark
Atlanta University, the union of the two historic
institutions was heralded by some as “one of the
greatest decisions in the HBCU community.” Others
predicted that the benefits of the consolidation may prove
challenging to actualize.
However, CAU has emerged as an institution sound
enough, strong enough and bold enough to successfully prepare students to become leaders in an intensely competitive
and complex world.
Through the School of Arts and Sciences, School of Education, School of Business Administration and Whitney M.
Young, Jr., School of Social Work, CAU is preparing its graduates to help identify solutions to many of the most critical
issues facing the nation.
The School of Arts and Sciences
The School of Arts and Sciences at Clark Atlanta University
is a thriving cultural and academic milieu in which students
and faculty are engaged in a wide range of activities. On any
given day, faculty and students in the School of Arts and Sciences are involved in academic activities from cutting-edge
research on prostate cancer to students preparing to meet the
demands of a career in the technology industry to the cultivation of the next stars of stage, television and film.

Composed of the Division of Natural and Mathematical
Sciences, the Division of Social Sciences, the Division of
Humanities and the Division of Communication Arts –
which boasts as one of its alumni leading director/producer/actor Kenny Leon – the School is developing students
to reach their full potential as leaders in various industries
and in community service.
With a robust roster of programs, the School services
every student on campus, teaching a wide range of general
education requirements from English and mathematics to
art appreciation. “During their first two years at CAU, we prepare students for their major programs by providing them
with a firm foundation in critical thinking and communication,” said Dr. Shirley Williams-Kirksey, dean of the School
of Arts and Sciences. “With this initial training they are well
on their way to being successful the last two years of their
undergraduate experience.”
In recent years, the School has substantially increased the
number of real-world internships and opportunities to study
abroad made available to CAU students. This is attributed in
large part to the School’s ongoing efforts to continually
build bridges with corporations, nonprofit agencies and the
federal government. These relationships have not only translated into internships and international learning excursions,
but also job offers for students.
“WHEN STUDENTS LEAVE OUR CAMPUS WE WANT THEM TO BE READY TO WORK AT CNN, BECOME AN
ENTREPRENEUR, GO INTO MEDICAL RESEARCH OR TEACHING, OR WHEREVER THEIR EXPERTISE
LEADS THEM.” —DR. SHIRLEY WILLIAMS-KIRKSEY, DEAN OF THE SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES
Williams-Kirksey noted one of the major goals of the
School of Arts and Sciences is to make sure that upon graduation students are fully equipped to do well in their careers.
“We focus on training, coupled with academic work,” she
said. “When students leave our campus, we want them to be
ready to work at CNN, become an entrepreneur, go into medical research or teaching, or wherever their expertise is . . . we
are preparing them not only for jobs today but we’re putting
them on a track for success years down the road.”
The students of today are not the students of yesterday,
said Williams-Kirksey. “Students in 2009 have greater access
to information through the Internet and many other sources.
So when they get to CAU they are a much different student
from the student of 20 years ago.”
To make certain its curriculum remains applicable in rapidly changing times, the School’s administration, faculty and
students are continually engaged in research around numerous issues – such as the environment, homeland security,
technology, politics, international affairs, medicine — that
dominate the headlines and influence the development of
not only the U.S., but also the global community.
“Uppermost on our minds, and what we are determined to
convey, are ways we want Clark Atlanta University to succeed
in the next 20 years,” added Williams-Kirksey. “In that, we
envision programs that are going to be academically driven
but have an international component. We are preparing students to meet world needs.”
School of Business Administration
When Mark Peaks and Marlon Lloyd graduated from CAU’s
School of Business Administration with MBAs in finance in
1997, the young men joined an impressive group of alumni
of the School.
During its 77 years of educating business students, the
School of Business has produced some of the nation’s most
successful business leaders and entrepreneurs, including
Gregory Jackson, founder, president and CEO of Prestige
Automotive Group, which was the first African-Americanowned automotive group to reach $1 billion in sales.
Alumni of the School also include leading executives such
as Darryl Cobbin, senior vice president, 20th Century Fox;
Alex Cummings, executive vice president and chief administrative officer for The Coca-Cola Company; and Derrick M.
Williams, vice president of finance and planning for Delphi
Powertrain Systems. All three executives also serve on CAU’s
Board of Trustees.
L-R Mark Peaks, President and Marlon Lloyd, Vice President of
Sandy Springs Lawn Scapes
CAU’S School of Business Administration has produced a
substantial class of entrepreneurs who are providing jobs,
products and services around the nation.
A case in point is the success of Lloyd and Peaks, who in
June 2005, purchased one of Atlanta’s long established professional landscaping companies. Since that time, they have
grown the company to more than triple its size.
“At CAU, Mark and I were able to sharpen our critical
thinking skills through the finance curriculum and as an
entrepreneur, I can’t think of a more important ability to
possess,” said Lloyd, vice president of Sandy Springs Lawn
Scapes. “Each day, we are faced with tough decisions, particularly in the current economic environment, and our ability
to think through those decisions strategically and find the
best solution is vital. Those skills were developed at CAU’s
MBA program.”
Today, Atlanta-based Sandy Springs Lawn Scapes employs
more than 100 people, has approximately 500 customers and
now has operations in Orlando, Tampa and Sarasota, Fla.
As one of the top 10 producers of African-American
undergraduate business professionals in the nation, the
School of Business Administration continues to graduate the
largest number of African-American MBAs in the world –
leaders who are providing innovative solutions to today’s
global business challenges.

“THE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION’S PROGRAMS ARE FORWARD LOOKING BECAUSE WE TRANSFORM
OUR PROGRAMS TO MAKE SURE THEY STAY RELEVANT TO WHAT SCHOOLS ARE REQUIRING AND
NEEDING.” — DR. TREVOR TURNER, INTERIM DEAN OF THE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION
According to Ed Davis, interim
dean of the School of Business,
many attributes contribute to the
uniqueness of the School’s curriculum and teaching and learning
environment including a smaller
student body, seven faculty members who hold Ph.D.s and a diversified faculty, which includes
instructors from eight countries.
From Davis’ perspective, the
School makes a special effort to
train students to be leaders in the
business and financial industry by
instilling in students three important principles.
“We train students to behave
ethically, to be deep thinkers and Thayer Hall, Whitney M. Young, Jr., School of Social Work

tionally. The School has a long-held reputation for using an
Afrocentric perspective, autonomous social work practice
model and research to produce social workers who make a
difference.
The Whitney M. Young, Jr., School of Social Work has an
extraordinary heritage that began with Forrester Blanchard
Washington, the third director of the School. He was a visionary African-American social worker who led the Atlanta
School of Social Work from 1927-1947 and the Atlanta University School of Social Work from 1947-1954.
Washington sought to transform social welfare conditions in the South by developing a much needed educational
institution to train African-American social workers. His
legacy lives on in the continued viability of the 88-year-old
School that, in 2009, is redefining its role as a leader for training new social workers.
Today, the School is being led by Dr. Vimala Pillari, who
joined CAU as the School’s new dean in October 2008 (see
Faculty Focus for more on Dr. Pillari). Her long-range vision
is that the School of Social Work become one of the best in
the nation.
Dr. Pillari’s vision also includes building another doctoral
program in clinical social work and eventually building a
research center for families and children that would focus on
problems that affect the family such as alcohol, teen pregnancy, child abuse and domestic violence — areas of expertise
she honed as a scholar and clinical social worker.
“One of my goals is to create an environment that encourages scholarship and excellence in teaching among faculty,”
said Dr. Pillari. “We are also placing a greater emphasis on
developing an atmosphere that promotes greater faculty-student interaction.”
Dr. Pillari and the faculty are committed to developing the
next generation of social work professionals by delivering academic programs and practical experience opportunities that
produce new professionals who are prepared to approach
today and tomorrow’s social problems from a solution-based
perspective.

CAuPRI
CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY
PROCESS RENEWAL INITIATIVE
CAU’s continued progress involves
breaking down silos, building communication
Clark Atlanta University faculty and staff were charged by President Carlton E. Brown
(then EVP/Provost Brown) to re-engineer their thinking by breaking down silos and
building communication. This charge led to the birth of the Clark Atlanta University
Process Renewal Initiative (CAuPRI), the roadmap for the University’s future in terms
of strengthening overall processes and systems. The goal of the initiative is to place
greater emphasis on service and responsiveness to all constituencies with the total integration of the BANNER system as the tool.
T
he project will require University-wide participation. Faculty and staff were initially engaged last
spring and summer in CAuPRI’s daily and weekly
process improvement assessments and needs
assessments sessions with SunGard Higher Education consultants in addition to their regular responsibilities. CAU’s
current state processes and recommendations for improvement were documented, areas needing immediate improvements were identified, and initial improvements were made
in the process improvement assessment sessions.
During the needs assessments sessions, CAU’s future state
processes were documented, future state process flows and
narratives were developed, and primary training was completed. To date, all future state processes have been reviewed
with each CAU department and an initial roadmap has been
developed for moving forward.
12 CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE FALL 2008/ WINTER 2009
“I believe more awareness, more coordination between
departments, and improved communications have been the
biggest impacts of CAuPRI,” said Lucille Maugé, chief compliance officer and team leader of the CAuPRI initiative.
“CAU was operating in a silo effect, but the extensive collaboration required among departments by CAuPRI has started
to create a major shift in how we view our services and is
breaking down organizational barriers. The spirit of collaboration has enabled employees to close gaps in areas where
they had questions before.”
Maugé also said some of the Process Improvement Assessment (PIA) recommendations were accomplished immediately
without being a part of the CAuPRI project management.
Moreover, SunGard consultants were able to assist staff with
fixing some of the more immediate problem areas.
Members of CAU’s Division of Institutional Advancement and University Relations accept a Certificate of Excellence Award for CAuPRI
accomplishments from President Carlton E. Brown (rear, far right) at a recent CAuPRi awards ceremony. Holding award are (L-R) Aristide J.
Collins, Jr., vice president for Institutional Advancement and University Relations and Dacia Amey, director of Advancement Services.
“Staff has welcomed the process,” said Kevin Davis, project manager for CAuPRI. “There was excellent participation
and the people who were engaged in the sessions were really
trying to think of ways to improve the process.” Davis added
people also had a better understanding of the process
because a cross-functional approach was used.
Last November, the University celebrated the completion of
the CAuPRI’s first milestone. President Carlton E. Brown and
members of the Executive Cabinet were on hand to bestow
Certificates of Appreciation to staff members from those
departments that had been involved in the process improvement and needs assessments process.
The Spring 2009 semester begins the execution of Phase I
in the areas of student enrollment, student activities, financial aid and student accounts receivable. It will also include
data integrity (clean-up), which involves looking at the entire
BANNER infrastructure across the University, on-line requisitioning, and completing the employee pledge process – an
integrated payroll deduction process with Institutional
Advancement and University Relations, Human Resources
and Finance – so employees can use this function to donate
to the University.
Additionally, the next phase includes developing policies
and procedures; reviewing and revising the core set-up structure of BANNER; providing ongoing BANNER Training;
building a Project Task Plan; developing rules to ensure data
integrity/cleaning existing data; and re-engineering the data
collection process for admission to CAU.
CAU’s future state impact will definitely benefit students.
It involves a more streamlined and efficient admission
process, increased efficiency in the financial aid process, and
more timely and effective communications to CAU students.
For CAU faculty and staff, there will be consistent and
improved data integrity across all departments as faculty and
staff data will be online; University and departmental policies and procedures will be documented; and training materials to improve knowledge transfer will be available.
Ultimately, the future state impact ensures CAU will have a
stronger compliance environment.
By breaking down silos, and building communication, the
CAuPRI is well on its way in accomplishing this goal.
“The key to the success of this project is the commitment
from everyone at the University — students, faculty and staff,
because they all use the tool (BANNER),” said Maugé. “We
need everyone’s help to drive the change in how we maximize
the tool. We have to compete with our aspirant universities.” CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE

CAU’s Communications Gems
A Glimpse Inside WCLK and CAU-TV
Located in the lower-level of Woodruff Hall are two Clark Atlanta University communication gems:
91.9 FM WCLK, Atlanta’s longest operating jazz station, and CAU-TV, a well-regarded training
ground for mass media students.
WCLK-FM
Jazz 91.9 FM WCLK, “The Jazz of the City,” is a national icon,
with 35 years of excellence in programming to its credit.
WCLK’s initial programming format in the 1970s – innovative at the time – blended gospel, oldies, and blues with jazz,
its mainstay genre. In the 1980s and 1990s, other stations
began to borrow from WCLK’s tried and true formula.
Now, well into the new millennium, traditional and contemporary jazz has continued as a staple among WCLK’s
diverse musical offerings. In response, WCLK was named best
jazz station in Atlanta by Atlanta Magazine in 2007 and has
been voted best radio station for the last eight years by Creative
Loafing readers. Station representatives were recently invited
to the White House where WCLK was recognized as one of
the best HBCU (Historically Black College and Universities)
radio stations.
Wendy Williams, a CAU alumnus and WCLK’s general manager, does not intend to rest on these laurels. She has been
with the station since 1994 and is focused on keeping it relevant and viable. WCLK stays competitive on a modest budget
of which Clark Atlanta University supports 40 percent, and
the remainder is raised through fundraisers and grants. “Clark
Atlanta has been our blessing. They are our biggest cheerleaders,” said Williams.
The station is fertile training ground for CAU students. Up
to 30 students intern at the station each semester. “We try to
give them the total station experience,” said Williams. “They
are trained in their area of interest. The goal is by the time they
leave at the end of a semester, they can write public service
announcements, assist in producing a radio spot, handle a
ticket giveaway, schedule interviews or write a press release.”
WCLK’s staff is comprised of seasoned professionals. There
have been instances where students who have interned at the station come full circle as full-time employees. Tracy Ross Ringer
14 CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE FALL 2008/ WINTER 2009
was one of those students. She is now the station’s traffic and
continuity coordinator and Web site coordinator.
“A typical day at WCLK is anything but typical,” said
Ringer. “But that’s what I enjoy about my job. I have exposure
to every part of the station.”
According to Shed Jackson, WCLK’s marketing director, it’s
important to go beyond the broadcast booth and reach out to
the community. “We not only play jazz, we teach it,” said Jackson. “There are things we do on the education side to ensure
jazz stays alive and our listeners come to know the history and
fundamentals of the genre.” To that end, WCLK hosts jazz
symposiums and panel discussions at middle schools, high
schools and community centers, and during the spring and
summer months, is a supporter of Wednesday WindDown, a
free jazz concert series held in downtown Atlanta.
WCLK plans to kick off its 35th anniversary with a concert
in April at the Rialto Center with Take 6 and other awardwinning musicians. Throughout the year, and into 2010,
there will be a sequence of events at venues around Atlanta
celebrating the “The Jazz of the City.”
Simply put, “WCLK represents the true essence of jazz with
its music programming and cultural events,” said Jackson.
CAU-TV
When CAU-TV came on the air in 1984 it was Atlanta’s first
educational access television station. Some five years earlier,
then Clark College President Elias Blake and a team of
administrators and faculty, set out to raise funds to establish
a broadcast facility for the College’s mass communications
program and broadcast management sequence. With the
help of financial contributions from alumni and friends of
the College, CAU-TV (then CCTV) debuted on cable channel 4
with 12 hours of daily programming.
CAU-TV ALUMNI HAVE GONE
ON TO WORK FOR NATIONAL
NETWORKS SUCH AS CNN,
MTV, BET AND WTBS AND
LOCAL NETWORK STATIONS
AROUND THE COUNTRY.
Today, CAU-TV is broadcast on cable channel 23, 24
hours a day, seven days a week. It serves as a forum for community programming and as a hands-on training facility for
students, who are responsible for creating at least 15 hours of
original programming per month for a viewing audience of
about 90,000 homes within Atlanta city limits. Each semester, there are close to 20 students on payroll, with a host of
student interns and volunteers from the Atlanta University
Center rounding out the schedule – all of whom are advised
by five faculty members and professional staff, including
Murdell McFarlin, station manager.
Whether it’s 8 a.m., 12 midnight or some time in between,
at least one or two students can be found in the studio editing or filming some portion of their assigned show. Programs currently airing on CAU-TV include “Newsbreak,” a
live, five-minute news show broadcast twice daily, five days a
week from the field; “Potpourri,” an in-studio public-affairs
show that airs weekly; “Tempo,” which covers the Atlanta
entertainment scene; and “Jazzy Cooking with Esther and
Morris,” hosted by two 91.9 FM WCLK radio personalities.
Neishia Deas, a senior Mass Media Arts major with a concentration in television, radio and film, often burns the midnight oil in the studio. She is the producer of “Potpourri”
and has worked at the station for the last year and a half. “My
experience has been beyond worthwhile,” she said. “I realize
there are more avenues to being in television besides being in
front of the camera. There’s also producing, editing, script
writing, camera operation, and it’s all a team effort.”
For Deas, who spends on average 40 hours a week at CAUTV, the benefits far outweigh the time sacrificed. “If you leave
the University [in my area of study] without working at the
station, I believe you’ve put yourself 10 steps behind anyone
who has the experience. I’ve learned life lessons about prioritizing, being reliable, being cognizant of others’ time. I’ve
gained the respect of media people that I’ve worked side by
side with because they respect the hustle and the fact that I’m
putting in the same effort that they are to get a story, and I’m
still in college. Those kinds of acknowledgements can put
you ahead once you are in the workforce.”
As one of the founders of “Newsbreak,” Ebony Smith, also
a senior Mass Media Arts major with a concentration in
radio, television and film, is equally appreciative for her experience at CAU-TV. Smith eventually wants to own a television
production company. “I’ve learned to be more creative when
it comes to expressing myself and it’s given me a chance to
learn what are my strengths and weaknesses,” she said.
The television station, fully funded by Clark Atlanta University, is a support department for the Division of Communication Arts. To work at the station students must maintain a
3.0 grade point average. “CAU students who come out of this
program are students with a strong work ethic. They leave
with a skill base that has made them ready for middle-level
management,” said McFarlin. CAU-TV alumni have gone on
to work for national networks such as CNN, MTV, BET and
WTBS and local network stations around the country.
In the coming months, CAU-TV plans to team up with
WCLK and stream the radio station’s broadcast live over the
Internet to a global audience. Closer to home, McFarlin
would like to see CAU-TV expand its reach outside Fulton to
other metro Atlanta counties, but for now she has set her
sights on Southwest Atlanta. “I’d like for CAU-TV to be the
voice of Southwest Atlanta and we are getting there.” CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE

THE NEXT GENERATION OF LEADERS:
The Panther Newspaper is
Shaping Tomorrow’s Journalists
The Panther, Clark Atlanta University’s student-run newspaper, is both a
voice for Clark Atlanta University (CAU) students and a time capsule –
documenting the momentous, controversial and normal goings-on that
impact CAU and the Atlanta University Center community.
16 CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE FALL 2008/ WINTER 2009
The Panther comes out every two weeks with the help of
five section editors (news, nation/world, student life,
arts/entertainment and sports) and 15 to 20 reporters.
Arika Lawrence, The Panther’s editor-in-chief, has volunteered at the newspaper since freshman year, and is preparing to graduate in May. “I think The Panther is a wonderful
vehicle for journalism students to understand the industry
and learn about aspects of production, advertising and marketing,” she said. “You definitely get hands-on experience
and retain information better and execute tactics more fluidly by writing for The Panther.”
Ansley Brown, a junior, is the arts/entertainment editor.
“A lot of thought goes into this section since it covers such a
broad spectrum – music, theater, television. I enjoy it. I get to
be creative.” For Brown, who plans to go into public relations
after graduation, writing for The Panther has allowed her to
build up an all-important collection of writing samples. “I
have not yet had an internship that has not asked me for
[writing samples],” she said.
In the 25 or so years it has been around, The Panther has
earned a multitude of awards from the Southern Regional
Press Institute including “best of” in the following categories: overall, feature, layout design and photography. Like
countless papers across the country that are adapting to the
changing habits of its readers, The Panther made the leap to
the Internet six years ago. Online readership averages from
600 to 800 weekly reads into the thousands. With each new
print edition, The Panther distributes 3,000 copies of the
newspaper around campus.
Despite a dire outlook for print media, with newspapers
and magazines folding practically every month, Lawrence
and Brown are optimistic about the future of the industry. “I
don’t think online will ever totally replace hard copy,” said
Brown. “People like the personal aspect of reading that
comes with an actual newspaper or magazine. But, at the
same time, people also enjoy the immediacy of online. It’s a
matter of making it all accessible.”
Anastasia Semien started as a contributing writer at The
Panther her freshman year. Now a junior, Semien is managing
editor for the newspaper. Her most memorable story written
to date involved capturing the moment the campus community learned Barack Obama had clinched the presidential
nomination. “I recall interviewing people who were in tears,”
she said. “I witnessed some pretty raw emotions from the students on campus. I definitely think it was a milestone for me
as a journalist.”
Semien wants to continue digging deep into stories as an
investigative reporter for a newspaper or magazine. “I want to
be the voice for others who may not have any other option to
be heard.” Alumni Remember Their
Panther Experience
Jayme Bradford (CAU ’93) is an assistant professor of
mass communications at Voorhees College in Denmark,
S.C. During her four years at The Panther, Bradford held several positions, including news editor and editor-in-chief.
“I think my time at The Panther definitely honed my
work ethic. It was about being diligent, about putting in
extra work to get the job done. It was often not a 9 to 5
schedule. But that was the fulfillment, getting those deadlines met and getting the story done. I think it’s an essential experience for every journalist who wants to work for a
newspaper. Not only does it build character, it’s a wonderful practicum with helping you to become a journalist. And
to be honest, to me, you are not a serious journalism student if you are not involved with your school newspaper.
It’s a calling; everyone is not going to make it.”
Jonathan Landrum (CAU ’03) is a reporter for the Associated Press in Atlanta. He wrote for The Panther his junior
and senior year, serving as the assistant sports editor.
“The Panther was a stepping stone for me. It was an introduction into journalism – just the whole newspaper business.
I think most of all from a newspaper perspective, it taught
me the chain of command of a newspaper, how your story
can be edited, and how you can also learn from other writers.
I had really great camaraderie with other journalists, and at
the same time, I was around other journalists who were my
age and had the same hopes as I.”
Chandra Thomas (CAU ’95) is an Atlanta-based freelance
writer for numerous magazines including Essence, Ebony,
Heart and Soul, Diverse Issues in Higher Education and People.
She joined The Panther staff during freshman year, starting
out as a reporter and went on to become the newspaper’s
lifestyles editor.
“The Panther was a great opportunity for hands-on experience and to basically put yourself in real situations – problem solving, figuring out creative solutions to problems and
perseverance. We had challenges and had to figure out how
to get around them. The friends I made through my Panther
experience, I’m still friends with today.” CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE

TITLE III
ADVANCING ACADEMIC SUCCESS AT CAU
The Civil Rights Movement was at its height in 1965 when
the Higher Education Act was passed under President Lyndon
B. Johnson’s Great Society social reform agenda. The intent
of the Act was to level the playing field and ensure higher
education was accessible to all students regardless of their
socio economic background. The Title III Program was
established under the auspices of the Higher Education Act
to strengthen Historically Black Colleges and Universities
through a grant process.
Title III was introduced to focus on four areas in higher
education: institutional management (incorporating distinguished faculty into the University), fiscal stability (financial
strength and institutional advancement), academic quality
(rigorous programming) and student services (recruitment,
retention and graduation of talented students).
In 1965, Clark College and Atlanta University were among
the first six HBCUs designated to receive Title III funding.
From the start, Clark Atlanta University received funding as
both an HBCU and HBGI (Historically Black Graduate Institution). Today, Clark Atlanta University is counted among 96
HBCUs and 24 HGBIs that receive Title III grants.
The result of Title III funding are visibly evident at Clark

“More than 40 years after it was instituted, Title III continues to have a profound and positive impact at Clark Atlanta

Atlanta University. “Most importantly, Title III supports the
overall academic success of our students. We have used funds

the Thomas W. Cole, Jr., Research Center
for Science and Technology. Visit
www.ccrtd.cau.edu for details.
Officials at CAU and Spelman Col-
lege held a ribbon-cutting ceremony
this fall to celebrate the completion of
a $12 million renovation of the John
B. Shepherd Central Utility Plant,
located on CAU’s campus. The plant
services 14 buildings at Clark Atlanta,
14 at Morehouse College and 23 at
Spelman College. Energy Systems
Group completed the renovations,
which provide steam, hot water for
heating and chilled water for cooling,
using technology that helps the
schools to go green.
Hundreds of CAU students partici-
pated in a “Day of Civic Engagement,”
designated by CAU President Carlton
E. Brown, to encourage voter participation during the historic Nov. 4 presidential election. With classes cancelled,
students served as poll watchers, canvassed neighborhoods to encourage residents to vote and displayed voting
signage on street corners and majors
intersections. The night culminated
with a crowded TV-viewing party on the
election results, held in the Bishop Cornelius L. Henderson Student Center,
where cheers about the Obama win went
out across campus and into history.
Unveiled last
year for Black History Month by the
U.S. Postal Service, the Charles
Waddell Chesnutt
Black
Heritage
Stamp commemorates Chesnutt’s
work as an author.
Born on June 20, 1858, in Cleveland,
Ohio, Chesnutt became a lawyer,
noted businessman and author,
acclaimed for his collections of short
stories. In 1998, the Charles Waddell
Chesnutt Association was chartered by
the Department of English at CAU to
sponsor panels and programs that
enhance the critical study of Chesnutt’s work.
Clark Atlanta University sophomore Tashay Reid, who was recently
crowned Miss Black Georgia USA,
poses with CAU President Dr. Carlton E. Brown. Reid, a Mass Media
Arts major, also won “Most Photogenic,” the “People’s Choice Award,”
and the “Best Interview Award,”
during the recent pageant. The
Cleveland, Ohio native will compete
in the Miss Black USA pageant in
Washington, D.C., next June. Reid
is the youngest contestant to be
crowned Miss Black Georgia USA;
she also served as Miss Freshman at
Clark Atlanta. Dr. Brown said, “The
CAU family is extremely proud of
Ms. Reid’s accomplishments. She is
a fine example of the quality of student that we have at the University
who can successfully compete with
those from any other institution of
higher education.”
INAUGURATION OF DR. CARLTON E.
BROWN POSTPONED
Due to the current economic climate,
which is affecting the University and
the nation, the Presidential Inauguration of Dr. Carlton E. Brown, originally
scheduled from March 31 through
April 3, 2009, will be postponed until a
further date that is yet to be determined. The University will announce
the new date for inaugural activities
when that date has been determined.

Growing the Research Enterprise
The Division of Research and Sponsored Programs
One might say that Dr. Marcus W. Shute’s career was pre-destined long before he joined CAU
as vice president of the Division of Research and Sponsored Programs (RSP). As a child, the
future award-winning research engineer and scientist possessed a high aptitude in math and
science, and while most youngsters his age were playing with chemistry sets purchased at a
toy store, young Shute and his brother spent a lot of time “playing” in their mother’s lab at
Meharry Medical College. Their mother, Professor Elizabeth Shute, is a retired biochemist
who supported and encouraged her sons’ interest in science.
“I also enjoyed taking things apart to
see ‘how’ and ‘why’ they worked,” said
Dr. Shute. “I maintained that type of
curiosity throughout my education and
eventually decided to pursue a career as
a research engineer and scientist.”
During his matriculation at Tennessee State University (where he
became the first person to graduate
with a 4.00 out of 4.00 cumulative
GPA), he secured an internship at the
renowned Bell Laboratories and ended
up working with them for more than
17 years after the internship.
Shute, who holds several patents and
is a registered professional engineer, was
only the third African American to earn
a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from
Georgia Tech and was selected as the
recipient of the 1994 U.S. Black Engineer of the Year Award as Most Promising Engineer. He is recipient of the 2005 National Technical
Association Technical Achiever of the Year Award – Engineering, and led the design and completion of a new 62,000 sq. ft.
research facility at Tennessee State with state-of-the-art
nanoscience and biotechnology core laboratory facilities
funded by a $2 million grant that he obtained from the
Department of Defense. He was also selected as a finalist in the
Class of 2000 NASA Mission Specialist Astronaut Program.
Today, he leads CAU’s Division of Research and Sponsored Programs, which delivers one-stop, value-added sup22 CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE FALL 2008/ WINTER 2009
port and management throughout
the research process for CAU’s faculty, staff and students. RSP is
responsible for research administration and management of all
sponsored programs activity (both
research and creative works) at the
University.
“Currently, the students, faculty
and staff at CAU are involved in
research and scholarly activities
that address global issues that we
face today, such as development of
new materials through the use of
nanotechnology, human health,
national security, energy, and the
environment,” said Dr. Shute.
“Our Center for Cancer Research
and Therapeutic Development is
one of the leading centers for
prostate cancer research. The Center for Functional Nanoscale Materials is engaged in exciting
research at the intersection of nanotechnology and biotechnology, as are other units on campus. The Environmental
Justice Resource Center continues to serve as a catalyst in
addressing environmental justice issues, particularly for
minority populations.” RSP continues to be engaged in a
myriad of other sponsored program activities in education,
business and the social sciences that will position the
research enterprise at CAU for phenomenal growth, innovation and leadership. A Conversation with
Marcus W. Shute, Ph.D., P.E.
CAU MAGAZINE: What led you to accept the position as vice president
for Research and Sponsored Programs at Clark Atlanta University?
DR. MARCUS SHUTE: Clark Atlanta University has enjoyed
much success in research and creative works in the past. I
believe there is tremendous opportunity and potential at
Clark Atlanta University to continue to make significant contributions. In addition, there is unrealized potential to engage
the corporate sector as well as other institutions in research
collaborations that leverage our expertise and strengths.
Under President Brown’s leadership, I firmly believe that the
research enterprise at CAU will grow and flourish.
CAU MAGAZINE: What do you see as RSP’s greatest contributions to
the University and how does your division facilitate the further development of the research enterprise at CAU?
MS: Our greatest contributions will be in the areas of posi-
tioning the research enterprise for future growth in contract
R&D activities with the corporate sector, developing the
physical research infrastructure at the University by working
with our congressional delegation and corporate partners,
and continuing to monitor research compliance.
CAU MAGAZINE: From your perspective, why is there a greater
value being placed on university-generated research by the higher education community as well as the private sector and what does this
mean for institutions like Clark Atlanta University?
MS: In recent years, most new innovations and discoveries
can be traced back to academic research. There is increased
value placed on academic research by the corporate sector
because in many cases it is more cost effective. In addition,
some institutions have received significant revenue generated
by licensing the discoveries from academic research. Most
HBCUs and minority-serving institutions have not partici-
pated in this activity in a big way. As a leading research institution, CAU is uniquely positioned to be a major contributor
provided we take the necessary means to protect, market, and
commercialize the intellectual property developed by our faculty, staff, and students through sponsored programs activity or with the use of University resources.
CAU MAGAZINE: Your division has developed a new publication that
will soon be available. Tell us about the magazine, why it was created
and what you see as the publication’s contributions to research.
MS: Two new publications have been developed by our tal-
ented staff to highlight the research and sponsored programs
activities at the University. The Radar is an e-newsletter that is
published bi-weekly to inform faculty and staff about activities, funding opportunities and other important information. The Research Spotlight is the annual report of the
Division of Research and Sponsored Programs.
CAU MAGAZINE: What’s ahead for Research and Sponsored
programs in 2009?
MS: We will pursue new research initiatives in critical, high
growth areas such as nanobiotechnology, sensors, computational sciences, energy, homeland security, and the environment. We intend to develop and launch a fully functional
Web portal that will provide easy access to information about
the research enterprise at CAU as well as material to assist
our faculty staff and students in obtaining and executing
grants and contracts (see www.cau.edu/research for more
information). We look forward to working with University
Relations and Institutional Advancement as well as the President’s Office to engage our corporate partners and congressional delegation to support the growth of the research
enterprise at CAU and the University in general. CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE

CAU Magazine: What led to your decision to join CAU’s Board of
CAU Magazine: You have been able to build and sustain your success
Trustees?
over the duration of your career. What do you attribute as the keys to
your success?
JWD: Being passionate about the work I do inside and outside of the office. Fully embracing the concept of teamwork.
Commitment to excellence in all that I do.
JOHN W. DANIELS, JR.: Clark Atlanta University has a unique
place in American history, having trained literally thousands
of individuals who are having an impact in multitudes of
communities. It is an environment that features the best talents of people and creates world-class leaders. I know the
importance of such institutions in a global economy and I
was proud to be associated with and to be part of one.
CAU Magazine: What keeps you engaged in your role as a trustee?
JWD: As a trustee of Clark Atlanta University, I have the
unique opportunity to share a legal and business perspective
that hopefully will enable continuing growth and success of
the institution. The importance of education in terms of
changing the life opportunities of the students at CAU is
something that any trustee is excited about. Every time I visit
the campus, I am inspired by not only the commitment of
the faculty, but the enormous promise that the student body
provides for our society.
Perspectives on Leadership
CAU Magazine: You have garnered a number of accomplishments,
honors, and awards, including the Distinguished Leadership Award
by the Leader’s Forum and the 2008 Leadership Award by the
National Bar Association. What are three top principles of leadership
that you believe contribute to your success and that new professionals
can use as they begin their careers or pursue advanced degrees?
JWD:
Vision — to identify what you really want from your work
experience and to understand the importance of considering
long-term success.
Courage — to reach beyond your comfort level when pursuing
your goals.
Tenacity — to remain committed to your personal and professional goals.
CAU Magazine: Share with us your perspectives on some key strategies that young men and women can implement now to prepare for a
successful transition from the classroom to a career.
JWD: I think the most important thing students can do to
prepare for their career is to make sure they are applying
themselves in the classroom now. The diligence that is practiced
in their school work, such as being prepared for class each
day, studying each lesson in preparation for major exams,
and putting forth 100 percent now will translate how you
move forward in your career.
Today’s students also need to understand the importance
of relationships and communication skills. Most students
who leave college feel as though the work they did in college
— the book knowledge — doesn’t translate to real-life work
experience. The truth is, you may not utilize everything you
learned in the classroom, but throughout your life, you will
use the communication skills you have honed during your
college years.
CAU Magazine: How should Clark Atlanta University best prepare
students for leadership, given the realities of today’s competitive marketplace?
JWD: In my view, the University must continue to create
opportunities for students to be exposed to the challenges of
our competitive market. By providing access to information
on new technologies, offering programs to introduce students to the ever-changing business models in the workforce,
and creating mentoring opportunities to help students map
out successful career tracks, the University will serve as a
resource and model for success. CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE

TAKING THE LEAD
CAU is a major player in prostate cancer research
CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY’S CENTER FOR CANCER
Research and Therapeutic Development (CCRTD) is increasingly becoming well known among major prostate cancer
researchers across the country and around the world, rivaling
academic research institutions such as Harvard, Yale, Emory
and Georgia Tech. Although the Center is all-inclusive in
terms of cancer research, its primary focus is the study and
research of prostate cancer.
“Many felt we couldn’t compete with Emory, Georgia
Tech and the University of Georgia,” said Dr. Shafiq Khan,
CCRTD director for the past five years. “We had to dispel the
notion of being an HBCU [that] is not able to do cutting edge
research. So we identified one unique angle that no one else
was doing and that was prostate cancer. We have almost
completely finished what we set out to accomplish in five
years and we are now on our way to having a Center that is
self-sufficient within the next five years.”
According to CCRTD’s mission statement, the decision to
focus on prostate cancer emerged from the “significantly higher
rate of incidence and mortality among African-American men
due to this disease, and to the unique expertise of CCRTD faculty that can be readily applied to this area of research. The incidence rate of prostate cancer is 65 percent higher and the
mortality rate due to prostate cancer is almost double in AfricanAmerican men when compared to Caucasian men.”
Under Khan’s leadership, the Center has hired three faculty and three senior scientists and there are 45 people affiliated with the work of the Center. This includes faculty, research
scientists, undergraduate and graduate students, post-docs and
lab technicians. The Center brings in more than $800,000 in
indirect costs and $3 million in direct costs to the University.
The CCRTD is funded primarily by the Research Center in
Minority Institutions (RCMI) program of the National Center for Research Resources at the National Institutes of
Health (NIH), and supported by the Georgia Research
Alliance. The Center is composed of a multidisciplinary team
of faculty from several departments including, Biology,
Chemistry, Education, Engineering and Social Work. The
Center has developed an ongoing relationship with WCLKFM and CAU-TV to help promote awareness about prostate
cancer to the general public. Recently, WCLK launched a
news talk show, “Men’s Healthline with Dr. [James] Bennett”
airing every third Wednesday at 6 p.m. Dr. Bennett is a CAU
alumnus, noted urologist and an adjunct professor at CAU.

Khan, director of CCRTD, (Center) stands with Conference attendees.
“People realize CAU is a major player,” said Khan. “We
now have a great reputation on two levels, in the community
and professional recognition.” Within one year, the Center
received two grants totaling nearly $15 million from the
National Institutes of Health (NIH). The first grant of $6.5
million was awarded to CCRTD to establish the Center for
Excellence for Prostate Cancer Research, Education and
Community Services and will support research, training and
community outreach activities as related to prostate cancer
in the African-American community.
The grant will support three individual research projects
and six pilot projects in the area of cell and molecular biology of
prostate cancer as well as support scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students in the area of prostate cancer. The
grant will also provide initial support to develop a communitybased education component in prostate cancer and to establish
a program for raising awareness on prevention, screening, early
detection and treatment of prostate cancer. NIH also awarded a
$7.2 million grant to enable CCRTD to expand its facilities and
hire more researchers. The five-year grant will also support four
doctoral and four post doctoral students.
The CCRTD received funding totaling more than
$900,000 for two research grants from the Department of
Defense Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program in Prostate Cancer. Also, funding for the University’s
RCMI grant was renewed for the next five years in the amount
of $7,820,296.

Remembering former CAU football
standout Chuck Evans
On October 14, 2008, the Clark Atlanta University family lost former Panther
standout Chuck Evans, who died of a heart attack at Cobb County Medical
Center in Marietta, Ga. He was 41.
Described by many as a gentle warrior, the 6-foot-1 inch, 245 pounder
played both safety and tailback during his playing days at Clark Atlanta from
1987-1992.
After a stellar collegiate career at CAU, Evans was drafted in the 11th round
of the 1992 draft by the Minnesota Vikings. He was the starting fullback and a
key part to the 1998 Vikings that went 15-1 while also helping lead the team to
an NFL record of the most points scored in a season, 566, a record that was not
broken until nine years later by the New England Patriots.
Evans was one of the nearly a dozen players who followed offensive coordinator Brian Billick to Baltimore when he became head coach for the Ravens
in 1999.
In 2000, he only started in one game with the Ravens, but played a huge
role in Baltimore’s Super Bowl victory.
He retired from the Ravens in 2000 and remained a part of the Baltimore
community, while becoming an area radio personality.
Upon his death, Evans left behind a wife, two daughters, one brother, two sisters as well as a multitude of loving nephews, nieces, aunts, uncles and cousins. Winston Thompson Named to the Daktronics NCAA Division II All-Super Region
Clark Atlanta University sophomore
running back Winston Thompson has
been named to the 2008 Daktronics
NCAA Division II All-Super Region two
second team as voted on by the members of the College Sports Information
Directors of America (CoSIDA).
Thompson, a 5-foot-9 inch, native of
Miami, Fla., was a first team All-Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference
(SIAC) selection this past season leading the conference in rushing with
1,134 yards, including five touchdowns
and six 100-yard games. He also had 19
receptions for 247 yards, and finished
second in the conference with 127 allpurpose yards per game.
Thompson helped propel CAU to a
6-5 overall record this past season including a 5-4 mark in the conference, finishing fifth in the 10-team conference. It was
the Panthers’ first winning season since
1991.
The team is sponsored by Daktronics, Inc., an acknowledged world leader

Finding a way or making one in music and life
W
Without coming off as trapping her voice
in a point of time, N’Dea Davenport hasnot just survived in the music industry,
but she has flourished as one of the
industry’s most respected singers. Since
premiering as the front woman for the
groundbreaking group Brand New
Heavies, N’Dea Davenport, a Clark
Atlanta University alumna, has been
commanding respect in the industry, on
her terms since 1990. Traveling the
world as a performer, artist, writer and
most important, a participant in life,
Davenport took time out of her busy
schedule to talk to Clark Atlanta University Magazine about her days at (then)
Clark College, her tenacious beginnings
in the music business and how substance has outlasted flash. Following is a conversation with
Davenport that demonstrates that true to the motto of her
alma mater, she continues to “Find a Way or Make One!”
CAU Magazine: Can you tell me a little about yourself?
N’DEA DAVENPORT: First of all, I’m thrilled my alma mater
wanted to interview me. About me — I’m originally from
Atlanta. I attended Clark Atlanta University (then Clark College). I left to fulfill a passion that was manifesting in me —
the desire to express myself through music. I would classify
myself as an “International ATLien.”
CAU Magazine: What are you doing now?
DAVENPORT: Currently, I’m in the studio working with the
Brand New Heavies project. I’m also a big fan of collaborations, so I’m also working with Ladybug Mecca (of Digable
Planets) on her next solo effort. Finally, I’m working on some
new material for my next solo effort. I’m starting to venture
into new realms of music, particularly with the tempo, genres and textures. I’m not a person to be constricted into a box,
so it’s refreshing to hear it come together.
28 CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE FALL 2008/ WINTER 2009
CAU Magazine: A lot of readers probably can
still hear you with Guru on the “Trust Me”
collaboration from his Jazzmatazz LP.
Speaking of the Brand New Heavies (BNH),
what is your favorite BNH song?
DAVENPORT: I hope people are still listening to that; the collaboration felt natural because of the similarities between
jazz and hip-hop and how hip-hop
evolved from jazz. More important, it
helps you connect with the truth and
people connect with what’s real.
As far as my favorite BNH song, it’s a
tie between “Stay This Way” and
“Brother, Sister”. The latter was written
to highlight respect to all parents and
the wisdom they offer.
CAU Magazine: Give us your perspective on what’s different about
the music business now versus when you first started?
DAVENPORT: The difference in the business now is the transition from a “boutique” environment to a “mall” environment.
It’s more about manufacturing “divas” than allowing the
artists to evolve and showcase their natural talents. It’s becoming maintaining the status quo versus how to do your job as an
artist. Many artists are being built to dwell in the moment versus being allowed to create their moments musically.
CAU Magazine: I read somewhere that you were a drummer. Is this
true? What other hidden talents do you have?
DAVENPORT: Wow. Yes, I am a drummer. I also play the piano,
the flute and bass. A talent that people would not guess is I was
an athlete while in school. I played basketball and softball.
CAU Magazine: What brought you to Clark Atlanta University?
DAVENPORT: Good question and a better answer. I never con-
sidered Clark Atlanta, as I originally applied to Spelman
College. I submitted my application to Spelman and waited
THE THING I REMEMBER MOST IS SITTING IN DAVAGE AUDITORIUM AND THERE WOULD BE A
PIANO ON THE STAGE AND I WOULD GO IN THERE AND OTHER STUDENTS WOULD BE IN THERE AND
WE WOULD PLAY, SING, DANCE AND IT WOULD JUST BECOME SOMETHING TRULY AMAZING.
and waited and waited. The irony of all this is that I was
recruited by other schools for athletics but I still didn’t hear
anything from Spelman. My desire to attend the Atlanta University Center was there and I noticed Clark Atlanta was in
the middle of it all. I submitted my application and received
a prompt response and was given on-campus housing, which
I wanted to experience as a student.
The twist to this was Spelman finally responded with an
acceptance letter. Clark Atlanta accepted me on the merits of
my academic achievements. This touched me as a woman
who wanted to be evaluated by who I am and what I bring
and not how I look, as Spelman requested a photo of me.
This value I still exercise in my music career. So, Clark Atlanta
may not have been my first choice, but it was the “best”
choice for me.
CAU Magazine: What do you remember most about attending Clark
Atlanta?
DAVENPORT: The things I remember the most were based on
my involvement in the arts. I would always sing at various
shows on campus, produce pageants, things of that nature.
The thing I remember most is sitting in Davage Auditorium
and there would be a piano on the stage and I would go in
there and other students would be in there and we would
play, sing, dance and it would just become something truly
amazing.
CAU Magazine: Davage is still a special place on campus. They just
refurbished it for future students to experience that magic many of us
experienced during our matriculation. Speaking of experience, what
professor/instructor had the greatest impact on you and why?
DAVENPORT: That person would be my news writing instructor
Aisha Nangi. She taught a number of us to open our eyes and
not to be so accepting about everything given to us through the
media. It was that idea of being an objective listener, reader and
using this objectivity before forming a conclusion.
CAU Magazine: Give me an example of a situation you faced in life
where you had to “Find a Way or Make One.”
DAVENPORT: I have always been the unofficial underdog so I
think a great majority of the situations that one faces in life
requires them to find a way or make one. The example that is
most demonstrative of this for me is when I was trying to get
my career of the ground. I don’t think I ever shared this publicly
but since it’s Clark Atlanta, you’ll be the first. I had left
Atlanta to go to Los Angeles with $300 and a strong drive to
make it as an entertainer. I was working at The Cast Theater
as a stage manager for this one-woman show. I was living with
a friend during the time and we had a disagreement. The
result was my being kicked out. I found a way to live because
the theater owner understood my situation and so I ended up
living in the theater for a while. I would tell anyone: know
what your strengths are and have the faith to persevere. Meet N’Dea Davenport

CAU hosts BET networks panel discussions
Financial empowerment. Women in politics. Those were the topics of two powerful panel discussions held on campus last October by BET Networks. CAU President Carlton E. Brown
brought greetings to a packed multipurpose room in the Bishop Cornelius L. Henderson
Student Center to kick off the two-day event, held in conjunction with the BET Hip-Hop
Awards, taped in Atlanta.
“Clark Atlanta University is proud to serve as the host of
such an important forum,” said Dr. Brown. “This kind of
exchange is an extension of our classroom activity, as we
strive to maintain a superior learning environment to help
prepare students for leadership in their chosen professions
in light of real-world challenges.”
Debra L. Lee, chairman and CEO of BET Networks, said,
“We’re so excited to bring the BET Hip-Hop Awards back to
Atlanta for the third year in a row, and we couldn’t be more
thrilled about partnering with these organizations for these
timely and important panel discussions about financial literacy and the role women of color play in politics. BET Networks has always had a strong commitment to educating and
empowering our audience, and these two forums will provide
our audience with a unique and engaging opportunity to discuss and learn about two of the most critical issues of today.”
On the financial empowerment panel, participants
included Russell Simmons, Ludacris, Dr. Benjamin Chavis,
and “106 & PARK’s” Terrence and Rocsi. The second panel,
“Fly Girls Vote: Hip-Hop Women for Change,” was hosted
by MC Lyte and moderated by cultural critic and journalist
Michaela angela Davis.
In the midst of the current crisis in the American economy, BET Networks created a partnership with the Hip-Hop
Summit Action Network (HSAN), Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.,
30 CLARK ATLANTA MAGAZINE FALL 2008/ WINTER 2009
and Enterprise Rent-A-Car to deliver crucial information to
young people about how to manage their finances in this
volatile market, and how to avoid debt or get out of debt.
This grassroots effort has helped to engage young people in
discussions about the importance of personal finance, covering such topics as the basics of banking, repairing and
understanding credit scores, asset and wealth management,
vehicle financing and home ownership.
From Sojourner Truth to Sista Soulja, Harriet Tubman to
Shirley Chisholm, and now to Michelle Obama, women of
color have had an illustrious legacy in American politics,
including the civil rights movement. The “Fly Girls Vote”
town hall spoke directly of the hip-hop generation and featured a diverse group of panelists, special performances by
Black Kold Medina (Trouble the Water), graffiti-style art and a
lively Q&A discussion. The panel included Tricia Rose, professor of Africana Studies at Brown University, and activist
Moya Bailey.
BET Networks, a division of Viacom Inc. (NYSE: VIA,
VIA.B), is the nation’s leading provider of quality entertainment, music, news and public affairs television programming for the African-American audience. The primary BET
channel reaches more than 87 million households, according to Nielsen Media Research and can be seen in the United
States, Canada and the Caribbean. Clark Atlanta

A Letter from Juanita P. Baranco
Board of Trustees Chair
Dear CAU Family, Friends and Supporters,
Without question, the past few years have been eventful at Clark
Atlanta University. I am proud to say that that our collective vision of
becoming a leader in higher education is closer to being a reality than
we ever envisioned.
Dr. Carlton E. Brown became Clark Atlanta University’s third
president on August 1, 2008, joining the CAU family at a very
important juncture in the University’s history — institution’s 20th
anniversary. Dr. Brown has brought to CAU a unique brand of
leadership and passion and energy that will help Clark Atlanta
achieve her destiny as an extraordinary institution.
Yes, we continue to excel under challenging times, but there is good
reason for the entire CAU family to be optimistic about what we have
achieved and can achieve. We are focusing all of our knowledge,
experience and commitment on setting and maintaining high
performance standards, pursuing excellence, and sustaining a superior
learning environment.
I wish to extend many thanks to each and every one of you who
invested in Clark Atlanta University, and thanks to those who continue
to believe in us. Your support has made a CAU education possible for
thousands of talented students from diverse backgrounds who are
eager to build a better life for themselves, their families and their
communities.
As we celebrate 20 years of academic excellence and embark upon
a re-energized Clark Atlanta under the leadership of a president who
is a passionate advocate for higher education, we will be coming to all
of our constituencies to support our efforts to raise the needed funds
to keep CAU competitive. Clark Atlanta University has a bright
future, and it is our fervent belief that our collaborative energies will
keep us moving toward greatness.
Thank you again for all you have done and continue to do for
Clark Atlanta University!

A Message from Aristide J. Collins, Jr.
Vice President for Institutional Advancement and University Relations
CAU Family and Friends,
It is nearly impossible to overstate the importance and value of our alumni, friends, corporate
foundations, faith-based organizations and supporters of Clark Atlanta University (CAU). This
report on gifts and contributions was published in recognition of your contributions during the past
several years and to applaud your continued investment in CAU and the students that the University
is preparing for leadership.
Contributions are the lifeblood that sustain colleges and universities, and your generosity has
certainly made a profound difference in further strengthening Clark Atlanta University
to fulfill its mission. In addition to being valuable extended members of the CAU family,
alumni, corporations, foundations, and private donors play an important role in
building advocacy and support for the University within their respective communities.
While we are deeply appreciative for all of the financial support that our internal and
external constituents provided over the last several years, we know that many of our
donors are facing the same economic challenges that other corporations, foundations,
organizations and individuals are experiencing nationally and internationally. Clark
Atlanta University is not immune to the effects of the nation’s current economic
condition and concurrently, our students are also experiencing a greater challenge to
their ability to afford a college education due to less access to loans and reduced loan
eligibility.
Despite the economic challenges facing all higher education institutions today,
Clark Atlanta University continues to provide students with an excellent education and
to maintain its standing as one of only four HBCUs in the nation with a Carnegie classification as a
Doctoral/Research-Intensive University. At the same time, our students are forging ahead to fulfill
their dream of a college education.
Clark Atlanta remains a very good investment for donors, and we need your support now more
than ever to ensure that we are positioned to continue to provide high-quality, accessible educational
opportunities for deserving students. Each of us must continue to invest in CAU to keep our
competitive edge in the national and international higher-education community.
CAU extends special recognition to alumni for their generosity in the past and especially this year.
Our alumni gave more than $1 million to support scholarships and academic programs at the
University. In addition to the $1 million in cash, we received an additional $2 million in gift
commitments from alumni, which will be fulfilled over a period of years.
The faculty, staff and students owe a debt of gratitude to all donors for their support and
investment in the University and look forward to another outstanding year of working together to
keep CAU on the leading edge of learning. With continued support from all of you and continued
hard work from the Institutional Advancement/University Relations team, we will strengthen our
institution, renew old relationships and create new ones, and raise the funds needed for the Academic
Enterprise and scholarships.
Thank you for investing in Clark Atlanta University and for all that you do for CAU.
