155 years of Alcorn Excellence💜💛.

Today, we celebrate 155 years of excellence!

On this day in 1871, Alcorn University opened its doors as America's first public land-grant HBCU. It was built on the sacred conviction that education is a birthright for every person.

A few amazing facts that we celebrate today!

✅ Founded on the site of Oakland College, purchased by the State of Mississippi for $40,000
✅ First led by U.S. Senator Hiram R. Revels, who resigned his Senate seat to serve as our inaugural president
✅ Grew from 225 acres and 3 buildings to over 1,700 acres and 80+ structures
✅ Expanded from 179 students to more than 3,000 students from across the nation and world
✅ Home to degree programs in 40+ areas, including doctoral-level study

From the Braves of yesterday to the Braves of today, this anniversary belongs to every person who ever walked these grounds, wore the purple and gold, and carried Alcorn's legacy forward.

Tag a fellow Brave and share what Alcorn means to you! 💜💛
