On Thursday Night during the regular General Body Meeting, two guests from Men's Wearhouse educated the members on the "do's and don'ts" in professional and business casual attire. That following Saturday, over 25 members traveled to a nearby mall to purchase personally tailored suits at a discounted cost.
BUGA Screening
Produced by Jamari Jordan of UGA ELITE, the documentary including views of the African American community on campus was eye-opening to those that attended. Discussion questions pulled the concerns of students in the community and gave way to different points of views that may have not been recognized before. The screening was an absolute success and we would personally like to thank UGA ELITE for the partnership on this event.
Annual Fall Retreat - 11/9/2014
Before the formation of a society, BMLS first started with the Black Male Leadership Retreat in 2007. From that retreat, came the need to identify and connect with others on campus who were committed to the development of Black Male students on the University of Georgia's campus and thus began the Annual Fall Retreat.
KNow Your Rights Forum - 10/22/2014
On a chilly Wednesday Night, BMLS and many students assembled in MLC 213 to discuss our rights. A panel of distinguished guests answered questions in regards to Social Justice, community and law enforcement relationship, as well as what to do in particular scenarios. The panelists helped educate many on things they may not have known prior, and everyone left satisfied.
