Drexel University Black Alumni Council (DUBAC)
MISSION
DUBAC’s vision is to embrace our collective responsibility to those who led the way among Drexel’s people of color community and to those who will follow, both on campus and in the world.
Current goals include:
- To engage current students and alumni in a network that connects them to the University and each other through effective communication, stimulating programs and events.
- To foster meaningful ties with students to attract, support, develop and empower the next generation of black alumni.
GALA CELEBRATES A DECADE OF MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS
Friends, supporters and members of the Drexel University Black Alumni Council gathered at the Warwick Hotel Rittenhouse Square on Oct. 19 to honor the group’s 10th anniversary. The energy in the room was palpable as guests dined, danced and raised funds for the DUBAC Endowed Scholarship. Guests of honor included Lenny Comma ’92, recipient of the Distinguished Alumni Award and Jemel McWilliams ’03, recipient of the Paragon Trailblazer Award.
