From the publishers
Wherever your platform heels, polyester leisure suits, “Mod Squad”-like afros and 55¢/gallon
of gas found you in 1974, you could not have imagined that 38 years later:
•The White House occupied by the first African American, President Barack Obama, now
running for re-election;
•The (then) California-based “Breath of Life” TV ministry (now) headquartered at Oakwood (now) University Church, (now) led by speaker-director Dr. Carlton P. Byrd – (then) a two year old toddler in 1974; and
•(now) “LNP” (Dr. Leslie Nelson Pollard) and his bride (now, Dr. Prudence LaBeach
Pollard) would serve as (now) the 11th President and First Lady of their alma mater, as it reached its 2,000-student milestone in fall 2011, for the first time!
This special issue of Oakwood Magazine returns primarily to that milestone 1974 school year
– when we reached the 1,000th student mark – and asks the question: in what parallel ways
can we view Oakwood College THEN and Oakwood University NOW?
Admittedly and because of the “special-Issue” nature of this publication, Team PR, the
publishers of this and other Oakwood publications, will veer somewhat from the Oakwood
Magazine to which you’ve been accustomed, traditionally.
To accomplish this initiative, your immediate feedback is so vital. And sought after.
Please complete the surveys in selected articles, for you to feed back to us your responses.

Meet Oakwood’s
2,000 Student
th
by Michele Solomon
When Larry Bush decided to
complete his undergraduate studies through Oakwood’s LEAP
(Leadership Education for the
Adult Professional) program,
little did he know that he would
make history as the 2000th student to enroll at Oakwood University in any single semester.
That happened in the fall of 2011
when the university broke all previous enrollment records set since
its opening in 1896.
Bush was nearing retirement
from the City of Huntsville after
33 years, but he wanted to fulfill
his lifelong dream of earning a
bachelor’s degree. He had begun
studies in Religion and Theology
at Oakwood in 1974 and attended
on-and-off for seven years, while
working full-time. Challenged
with school, the demands of his
job and family responsibilities,
he made the tough decision to put
that dream on hold in 1981.
Several years later, with the encouragement of LEAP director
Dr. Rachel Williams-Smith, he
decided to re-enroll at Oakwood,
and complete his undergraduate
studies. By this time, Bush had
been working diligently in church
evangelism for about 30 years
WWW.OAKWOOD.EDU
“... once I became more familiar
with the technology,
I grew to like it.”
and was serving as an elder at
the Pleasant Acres Seventh-day
Adventist Church in Valhermoso
Springs, Alabama, where he and
his wife, Catherine, are members.
He decided to transition into the
field of Organizational Management.
It wasn’t easy, but after raising
all four of their children (now, all
adults), plus helping with their
grandchildren, Bush and his wife
agreed that it was time to finish
his degree. After several years
of being out of the classroom,
he had to buckle down. “I didn’t
welcome the online format at
first,” he said, “but once I became
more familiar with the technology, I grew to like it.” Catherine
helped him over the technological hurdle, and he eventually hit
his stride with LEAP’s blendedonline format that allows adult
learners to attend classes one
night a week while completing
class assignments online.
Bush also has a passion for community service and has volunteered for the past 20 years at
the North Alabama Community
Services Federation. He says that
his pursuit of a degree in Organizational Management better
equipped him for continued service in disaster relief training.
Now that he has retired, he plans
to take his level of involvement
in such projects to another level,
especially in light of the increased
tornado activity that has ravaged
North Alabama over the last several months.
Bush was understandably overjoyed as he crossed the graduation platform in 2011 to receive
his B.A. degree in Organizational
Management. His commitment
to God’s work and to community
service has been a driving force
for this Oakwood milestone student, and the university applauds
his tenacity in pursuing his educational goals.

Fannie Lou Hamer “returns”
to OU, kicks off campus
Voter Registration
by Lee Munro
During Oakwood University’s
Chapel on February 7, 2012, actress/singer Mzuri Moyo presented
“The Fannie Lou Hamer Story,”
depicting the life of an African
American voting rights activist who was integral in the Civil
Rights movement, particularly in
her home state of Mississippi.
In her one-woman performance,
Mzuri depicted the life and
struggles of Hamer through picture and song. Mzuri personified
Hamer as a strong, intelligent,
God-fearing woman, who strived
for enfranchisement for all. The
presentation also featured chilling videos of African American’s
being lynched, as a way to capture
the social atmosphere preceding
the Civil Rights movement.
Mzuri has portrayed Hamer for 11
years. After seeing her on TV, she
became inspired to re-enact her
story. “I heard the name ‘Fannie
Lou Hamer’,” recalled Mzuri.
“I knew she was somehow in-

Three decades after graduating from
Oakwood College, I was especially

launching a voter registration drive on

flood of memories prevailed when
recalling the day Mrs. Hamer actually
spoke in Moran Hall for our Lyceum
series.
It was February of 1974. (…) someone began the program with the
requisite Moran Hall song service [an
experience I took for granted back

been equaled – even in the grandest

her presentation.”
volved in civil rights, but I didn’t
know anything about what she had
done.”
She described her experience at
OU as, “amazing. I could tell that
the students were moved by the
performance.”
Raymond King, an OU alum and
current Student Activities Coordinator, worked with the OU student
NAACP chapter to co-sponsor

registration activist in Mississippi, the
powerful singer of freedom songs, the
unseated ‘delegate’ who nearly overtook the 1964 Democratic convention.
No, the ‘animated’ icon of our
struggle was not on display that day in
Moran. Instead, we were privileged to
witness the consummate Foot Soldier
for Justice -- still marching, sharing
her story, by then in a near whisper;
bent over from the persistent beatings
in county jails, yet - by God’s grace
- still standing before us. She mentioned her age and we almost gasped

which immediately followed
Mzuri’s presentation. He wanted
to encourage students to register
beforehand, and to vote during
the upcoming Alabama primary
and general elections. “Mzuri did
a good job of connecting with the
students,” said King. “She brought
her (Hamer) to life. Students
could see the struggle Mrs. Hamer
endured. King also spoke on the
recall how Mrs. Hamer’s quiet dignity
exemplified the heart and soul of The
Movement that morning for me.
We were enchanted (…). As Mrs.
Hamer slowly started to walk away,
she turned and gave Oakwood one
last gift: “Don’t get too comfortable,”
she cautioned, “’cause we still have
unfinished business. God bless you
all.”
I strained to watch until she disappeared through the door. Along
the way of the exit route her hands
grasped nearby furniture [the piano, a
chair] for support. We had witnessed
greatness housed in humility – bordering on frailty. I think most of
us in Moran that day suspected we
wouldn’t ever see her again.

Oakwood’s First and Only
National Miss UNCF
by Dawnette Chambers
The story of Brenda Spraggins Scott, Miss UNCF
for Oakwood College 1969, and winner of the
national title for Miss UNCF in 1969, was the cover
story of the March-April 1970 issue of the Message
Magazine. Scott recently shared some memories of
the competition, and insights on her life since that
day.
In 1969, Scott was a
sophomore Education
major at Oakwood, and
remembers faculty members encouraging her
to compete. Scott said
she “didn’t do much”
to raise money for the
competition. Known for
her singing, Scott
used
this recognition to raise funds. She sent out the official letters, that are given to every student competing for the crown, to people she knew and then they
passed the word on to other friends and family. “The
money just started coming in,” she says.
Since the Coronation was scheduled for a Friday
night, she told the officials that she would not be
able to attend because she was a Seventh-day Adventist. The committee postponed her coronation
until after sundown on Saturday, when she received
the National Miss UNCF Award, a 31” trophy, a gold
wristwatch, and a silver cup.
When asked how it felt to know that she won Miss
UNCF for Oakwood College, and on top of that how
she is the only Miss UNCF Oakwood to win the
National title out of the 36 college and university
queens, jokingly she said, “old.” She then expressed
how overwhelmed she felt.
Scott says the competition opened the doors for her
to develop a better relationship with God. “Oakwood
College was a very small institution at the time, in a
national competition with these huge schools. But
that just goes to show you how good God is, when
He wants to put your school on the map. When
He wants to let the world know Who is in charge,
it happens. It opened up a door that now I can
see how awesome He is and how He can move
mountains.”
Teaching the first and second grade for most of
her 34-year career, from which Scott has recently
retired, she loves seeing the light go on in children’s eyes when they understand a concept. She
wants to encourage everyone that, “no matter
what you do in life, if you follow and trust God
He will lead you always. Just be along for the
ride, God will handle the rest.”

Howell regularly sent letters to family, friends,
pastors, business leaders, and Oakwood employees.
She also sent out post-card reminders to all family
and friends to update everyone on her campaign’s
financial status. She took advantage of television,
sharing her goal with Janet Martin on a local television program.
Howell hosted several fundraising events, including a kick-off educational event (AYS at her home
church, Mt. Calvary SDA in Huntsville), where
commitment cards were distributed. She also hosted two silent auctions, and a concert which showcased the musical talents of Black males using their
gifts for God. All of her events were announced on
Oakwood’s radio station (Praise 90.1 FM WJOU)
and in the local church bulletins.
How Janelle Howell “Obama-cized”
her way to winning the 2012
Miss UNCF Crown
by Barbara Stovall
o borrow a phrase, Miss Janelle Howell
“Obama-cized” her way into the Miss UNCF
Oakwood University 2012 crown by using
“social media” for her campaign. And it worked -she was crowned on December 4, 2011.
Howell took advantage of Facebook as a way to
publicize her efforts, creating a page listing upcoming events and fundraisers, and approaching
contribution deadlines. Her Facebook page (where
she accumulated 855 “friends”) also advertised her
actual website: janellehowelluncf.webs.com, where
she explained why she was running for Miss UNCF,
and linked visitors to her PayPal account, enabling
them to make convenient, online donations to
UNCF. She also utilized email and other electronic
ad media.
WWW.OAKWOOD.EDU
Although the over $8,000 brought in by Howell’s
efforts was not the largest amount ever raised, her
efforts did set a standard for future Miss UNCF
contestants. Howell implemented new and strategic ways of raising money, and showed that thinking outside of the box carries no small advantage.
She has learned through this experience that “talk
doesn’t cook rice,” realizing that if you keep praying and don’t stop working, then the results will
work themselves out.
Howell is extremely thankful and humbled to represent Oakwood University and she considers it an
honor to serve her Oakwood University and represent the UNCF.

together in a small town called Stillwater, Oklahoma.
Janice: God first within our midst; Commitment – Passion

J.P.: We committed from the beginning our love for each

us through.
Any advice

Chuck: 1) When

When you do take
that step (and what
a step it will be!),
MOVE somewhere you both

This gives you time to get to know each other. This is a
MUST! 3) FORGIVE AND FORGET!
Janice: Take time to get to know each other before making a long-term commitment. Put God first. After that, be
committed–make the decision to be together as long as
you live, no matter what. Realize that there will be tough
times, and that any meaningful relationship requires effort
to keep it vibrant. Focus on the positive. Don’t have unrealistic expectations, and don’t go in planning to change your
spouse. (…) do something new occasionally. Finally, have
fun – don’t take yourselves too seriously. Have a sense of
humor and laugh often!!!

the world church of Seventh-day
Adventists, and the Oakwood
University community, as he was
inaugurated as the 11th president
of Oakwood University on October 16, 2011.
The inaugural festivities began
with a community luncheon on
Thursday, October 13. Here,

the roles and responsibilities of
educational institutions in Huntsville and Northern Alabama.
Alabama A &M University, Athens State University, Calhoun

Friday evening vespers was a salute to the First Family. Dynamic
Praise’s “With My Whole Heart”
struck a chord with everyone.
Ella Simmons, Board of Trustees
Vice Chair, and General Conference Vice President gave an
action-packed homily, “A Season
of Spring,” compared Oakwood
to a fig tree that survived winter and, with the coming of the
spring, must now bear fruit.
Divine Worship Service on
Sabbath, October 15, continued to build the momentum of
the weekend. With the sanctuary packed with worshipers,
the Aeolians and University
choir accompanied by the wind
ensemble provided the music,
and Charles E. Bradford, former
President of the North American Division gave the pastoral
prayer.
The speaker of the hour was
Daniel Jackson, current President of the North American
Division and OU Board of Trustees Chair. His sermon entitled
SPRING 2012
“Stones” resonated with the
audience.
Sabbath afternoon in the Moseley Complex, the President’s
Forum discussed Christian
education. Andrews University,
Atlantic Union College, Florida
Hospital College of Health
Sciences, La Sierra University,
Loma Linda University and
Walla Walla University were all
represented on the panel.
Many questions were asked,
such as “Can we truly afford our
Seventh-day Adventist institutions?” Vespers in the church
followed the discussion with
music from Voices of Triumph
and Charles Drake delivering the
homily “A Name.”
On Sunday, October 16, the
Installation Ceremony started
promptly at 2:00 p.m. at the
Oakwood University Church.
Greetings were given from Ted
N.C. Wilson, General Conference President (via video);
Daniel Jackson, North American
WWW.OAKWOOD.EDU
Division President; DeWitt Williams, National Alumni Association President; Laura V. Hall,
Alabama Representative; and
Nelson Pugh, 2011-2012 USM
President. Tommy Battle, Mayor
of Huntsville, charged Dr. Pollard, “As you write those pages
of history, be bold. Write bold
pages of history that talk about
achievement, inclusiveness and
progress.” Remarks from all the
surrounding area College and
University Presidents were also
given, with congratulations and
well wishes to Dr. Pollard, his
wife, and their two daughters.
The powerful operatic voice of
Whitney Morrison moved the
audience to their feet as she sang
“He’s Got the Whole World in
His Hands,” arranged by Margaret Bonds. The Aeolians and
University Choir gave a striking performance of “Someday”
WWW.OAKWOOD.EDU
arranged by Nathan Carter, to
another standing ovation.
Michael Lomax, United Negro College Fund President
and CEO, gave the Inaugural
Address entitled “A 21st Century Mission for a 21st Century
University.” He declared: “Dr.
Pollard is the right man, at the
right time for Oakwood, for the
country, and for the community
of historically black colleges and
universities.”
Lomax praised Oakwood as a
leader among HBCUs, charging
the school to lead other HBCUs
in being true to their heritage,
mission, and also be highly competitive, contemporary institutions. “I challenge you, women
and men of Oakwood–alumni,
faculty and staff, and all those
who love Oakwood–to join us in
this work.”
Pollard responded by sharing
many of his goals for Oakwood,
one being to market the Oakwood experience as “passionately spiritual, communal, rhythmically musical, and parental.”
The uplifting weekend ended
with a beautiful reception in the
newly-renovated Millet Activity
Center on Oakwood’s campus.
A spirit of joy filled the center
as the guests enjoyed great food
and fellowship.
Spring has finally arrived on the
campus of Oakwood University,
and the school looks forward
to bright days ahead as God
leads the institution through the
leadership of Drs. Leslie and
Prudence Pollard.

The
Aeolians
in 1974
Oakwood’s enrollment in the 1970s hovered
in the 800s. President Calvin Rock’s goal was
to build a student body of 1,000. He would
meet with the Public Relations Director, the
Music Department Chairman, and the Director
of the Aeolians, and show them a large map indicating the sections of the country from which
we receive too few students. “It was to those
places that the Aeolians were originally sent,
and the goal of 1,000 students plus was realized
within two years of our concertizing. (…) From
1973 to 1985 the more than 230 concerts they
performed with me succeeded in recruiting students from coast to coast in the United States and
from Canada, Bermuda, the Virgin Islands, and
the Bahamas.
“Their greatest achievement was passing the audition that qualified them to become Friendship
Ambassadors for America. Through their beautiful singing and winning personalities, they
established friendships for our country among
the peoples of Romania, England, Scotland and
Wales.”
Excerpted from “Aeolians: Oakwood’s Musical Emissaries,” by Alma M. Blackmon (director, 1973-1985), The Aeolians: Directors
Recall Precious Memories, by Dr. Roy E.
Malcolm, p. 64.
The 2011-2012 school year represented a very busy
time for Oakwood University’s prestigious Aeolians
Choir. In November 2011, the Aeolians placed first in
the iSing College Choir Scholarship Challenge, a competition held in Glenn Dale, Maryland, for Historically
Black Colleges and Universities. Led by director Jason
Max Ferdinand, the choir successfully defended their
2010 title by outperforming over 100 other HBCUs.
The Aeolians were honored by Huntsville’s Mayor
Tommy Battle on December 1, 2011, for their win at
the iSing Challenge. The Aeolians treated the Mayor, as
well as the City Council members to a “Human Surround Sound” mini-concert preceding the City Council
meeting.
In January 2012, the Aeolians travelled to Russia to
perform in the Second International Moscow Christmas
Festival of Sacred Music. The choir served as the only
U.S. performers and the first-ever Seventh-day Adventist group to perform at the festival.
“None of the
students could have imagined the kind
of imprint they were capable of leaving on a country already so marked
with history. I don’t think anyone was
prepared for the kind of emotion in
the cathedral that night.”
Student Temar Ellis remarked that
Director Ferdinand was “proud” of the Aeolians, and
of their performance in Moscow. “The power of music
united two different cultures and people. The Aeolians
sang with great passion, precision, pathos and power
when needed. It was a beautiful and blessed night. I’m
grateful for the experience, and that our students could
get such a glimpse of the bigger world.”
In March, 2012, the Aeolians were selected to sing at
the American Choral Directors Association Conference,
in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. This was a first for
the choir. Their performance there was followed by a
whirlwind Spring Break tour, as they travelled to cities
like Charlotte, Chicago and Washington DC.

As “21st Century Hebrew Boys,”
OU Men’s Basketball Team Upholds
Beliefs, Wins National Championship
by Dawnette Chambers
Oakwood University Ambasaadors men’s basketball team, the
United States Collegiate Athletic
Association (USCAA) 2012 Division 1 Champions, returned to
its Huntsville, Alabama, campus
on Sunday, March 11, 2012, welcomed enthusiastically by boosters chanting, “O-U, O-U!”
Similarly, Andrews University
men’s team won its USCAA Division 2 championship contest,
during the same tournament.
Fans gathered inside the OU’s
Ashby Auditorium – a smallerthan-usual group, due to Spring
Break’s ending – awaiting the
team’s arrival, during which time
OU President Leslie N. Pollard
and Dean David Knight, Vice
President of Student Activities,
shot hoops with students.
More than just winning the championship, these men stood up for
their faith, according to Cedric
Francois, producer and play-byplay announcer for Ambassador

time in the USCAA’s history the
Championship games for both
Men’s Division 1 and 2 were rescheduled to respect the religious
convictions of Oakwood and Andrews Universities, respectively.”
Athletic Director James Roddy
shared how out of the other associations he talked to (including
NCAA, NAIA and NCCAA), the
USCAA was the only organization that would respect OU’s Sabbath observance.
this is the first year in Oakwood’s
history that the Ambassadors won
(with a season record) 20-12, in
the year 2012, coincidently.”
Senior Austin Doggette, AllAmerican and Tournament MVP,
has followed in footsteps of his
brother James Doggette, Jr., who
was 2008 Tournament MVP when
the Ambassadors won their first
national championship.
Team members got off the bus at
Ashby, adorned with yellow and
blue leis, symbols of welcome
and congratulations. Senior Nardo Bryant thanked the crowd, declaring, “Let the record reflect that

Prof pursues unity
among varied faiths
Center seeks better Adventist-Muslim relations, respect
By Kay Campbell
[email protected]
Dr. Keith Augustus Burton, a mild-mannered religious
history professor who speaks in Jamaican-flavored cadences, has been assigned to set up camp in the minefield between Christians and Muslims.
As director of Oakwood University’s new Center
for Adventist-Muslim Relations, specifically, he is
charged with helping Seventh-day Adventists understand and respect Muslims. He hopes also, when he
can, to help Muslims understand and respect Adventists and Christians.
“We’re just trying to diminish some of the negative
thoughts and myths about Islam - and Christianity,”
Burton said. “There are myths on both sides that need
to be dispelled.”
To that end, the center has developed an online certification program for pastors and church leaders that
will begin at the end of February. The instructors will
include Adventist leaders and professors from Oakwood, the church’s world headquarters near Washington, D.C., and from other Adventists universities
around the world.
Professors could include scholars, such as Dr. Tarsee Li, professor of ancient Middle East languages at
Oakwood University, who keeps his Arabic sharp by
reading the Quran daily. Teachers for the course will
also include pastors and missionaries who have built
relationships with Muslim leaders in countries where
Muslims are in the majority.
The course is designed to help ministers develop joint
community programs with Muslims and build relationships.

Oakwood ‘pioneer’ with ISO certification
By Budd McLaughlin
It won’t be long before there’s a new flag joinng the
others at the entrance to Oakwood University.
Only this flag will be unlike any that will fly at any
other university in the state.
Or any other Historically Black College or University anywhere.
To those in the local business community, though, it
will be familiar.
You see, the Seventh-day Adventist school has received ISO 9001 certification.
“This kind of makes us a pioneer,” said Tim Allston,
Oakwood’s director of public relations.
Indeed it does.
In spite of all the government contracts won by the
likes of UAH, Alabama A&M, Auburn and Alabama,

OAKWOOD UNIVERSITY

SPRING 2012
Oakwood University is the first college or university in
the state ISO registered.
Ironically, Auburn’s Technical Center and Alabama
A&M help companies gain ISO certification, but they
don’t have the certification themselves.
“This is exciting for us,” said Marcia Burnette, Oakwood’s assistant vice president for development. “We
were the first HBCU accepted into NASA’s mentor-protege program.
“At that time, our objective was to get ISO 9001 certified.”
Oakwood is also in the mentor-protege program with
SAIC, and she said leading the move to certification was
program consultant Dr. Jay Billings.
“He helped us get through this,” she said. “He
brought this up years ago and worked with us off an on
for it.”
WWW.OAKWOOD.EDU
Burton hopes that Oakwood’s center also will become
a meeting place for the Adventist church between
Christians and American Muslims, many of whom are
African-American. Oakwood is a historically black
institution.
“There are things ministers can do that help break
down walls,” Burton said. “For instance, in many
places in the Muslim world, the term ‘Christian’ conjures the memories of the Crusades. Just calling yourself a ‘follower of Christ’ can keep doors from being
closed.”
One of the aspects of the faiths he hopes to educate
people about are the beliefs and history they both have
in common. The Quran mentions the Bible and people
who are also in the Bible in hundreds of places. And
Jesus himself, next to Muhammad, is regarded as a
prophet to be revered.
A documentary the center will sponsor, to be directed
by Dave Person, host of WEUP Talk and a former editorial writer for The Huntsville Times and USA Today,
will be putting together some of those commonalities.
In addition to the sacred histories, Adventists and
Muslims, even more than most Christians, have many
social aspects in common because of Adventist dietary restrictions and modesty guidelines.
So, what exactly is ISO 9001?
It is an internationally recognized standard for the quality
management of businesses.
“It makes us eligible to become a prime contractor for
grants, not a sub,” Burnette said. “We can actually go and
bid ourselves.”
She said it also provides an enhanced corporate imaging and marketing, assures better documentation and is a
proven program for corrective and preventive actions.
And, according to Allston, it’s no coincidence the school
pursued the certification under school president Dr. Leslie
Pollard, who has a master’s in business administration.
“He is our first president with an MBA and understands
and leads us to pursue such business-world benchmarks
,” he said. “His wife, Dr. Prudence Pollard, is a professor
of management in our business department and an examiner in the Alabama Productivity Center at the University
of Alabama.”
WWW.OAKWOOD.EDU
The center never will dismiss the foundational differences, Burton said. While he considers Muhammad to
have written prophetic things, he himself would not
class Muhammad as a prophet. And while the Quran
mentions Jesus, Burton understands that Muslims
could not agree with the Christian view that Jesus is
one with God.
said, shouldn’t get in the way of celebrating ways that
members of both faiths can build stronger communities and a more peaceful world.
“It’s our hope that those who are members of the
Abrahamic faiths will come to see that they have more
in common than things that separate us,” Burton said.
And with the designation, also comes added pressure,
Allston said.
“It puts a healthy pressure on us to keep up the registration,” he said. “We can take it and apply it to other
areas of campus, to let our students and faculty know we
can be academic and spiritual and navigate those worlds
successfully.
“ISO designation is for what we’ve done and, to keep
the honor, we have to continue to work.”
In the meantime, Burnette will be keeping her eye out
for the flag to arrive.
“I just got an email that said, ‘Please have certificate
(and flag) expedited immediately,’ “ she said. “We’re excited about the flag.
“Send us the (certificate and flag), and we can blast it
all over the place.”
