Warhawks Give Back at the Annual Tailgate

BY: Kenyetta Stephens It’s Homecoming, and every year we have our annual tailgate at AUM. The tailgate started at 10 a.m. on Feb.12 and it lasted until 12 p.m. The weather was nice and bright, and many people came to celebrate. Student Affairs handed out t-shirts to everyone who attended. There were about 12 different tables with food, drinks and prizes. I was able to converse with multiple tables during that time. This was one of the first times since Covid-19 started that we had tents out. Starting at the first tent was the Campus Activities Board (CAB). CAB was giving out chicken wings and drinks. There were four different types of wing flavors offered: lemon pepper, barbecue, buffalo and plain. The food was free to anyone who attended. One of the tables that stood out to ...

The National Pan-Hellenic Council + AUM Welcome Two More

BY: Kenyetta Stephens It’s Black History Month, and you can’t talk about Black history without bringing up Black fraternities and sororities. The National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC) is made up of nine Black Greek Letter Organizations (BGLOs), aka the Divine Nine. The NPHC was founded on May 10, 1930, and was incorporated in 1937. BGLOs have made significant impacts on communities, more specifically Black communities. We are excited to welcome two organizations back to campus this spring. This semester, AUM has the pleasure to welcome two National Pan-Hellenic Council organizations back to campus. Last semester, AUM announced the return of the Omicron Lambda Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Incorporated, chartered October 13, 2001, and the Rho Lambda Chapter of Zeta Phi B...

AUM Homecoming Setting the Tone for 2022

BY: Chris Porter Between Feb. 4-12, 2022, Auburn University at Montgomery will be hosting its annual homecoming. During this time, former students return to celebrate the existence of AUM and to reconnect with the student body, faculty and staff. This is a relief, as this will be AUM’s first homecoming since 2020, right before the start of COVID-19. Many different events and activities are taking place as part of the homecoming tradition, including a celebration of Black History Month to honor the contributions of African-Americans to history. To get more thoughts on homecoming, I sat down with SGA president Keenan Carter. Here is what he had to say: “Homecoming is one of my all-time favorite campus events. It’s a week full of fun events, fellowship with fellow peers, faculty,...

If you missed the first one, you do not want to miss this one. The party is from 10 p.m. to midnight. It will be held behind the library tower in the grass area. The party will feature one of our favorites, DJ Red. This event is open to AUM students only. CAB asks that every student bring their student ID for entry. The tent party is free, and all you have to bring is your dance moves. The last party was held right before COVID-19 shut down the United States in Spring 2020. The campus is buzzing with high anticipation. This party is sure to be a hit, so don’t be late.

AUM Athletics, College of Nursing and Health Sciences to Host Blood Drive

BY: Jessica Alldredge Montgomery, Ala. – Nov. 11, 2020 – In a time where everyone needs a little help, there are a lot of ways that AUM students can provide that help. Students can find little ways to give back to the community. Sometimes that means giving of their time, and sometimes that means giving of themselves. In this case, students have a chance to give of themselves literally. AUM provides many opportunities throughout the year for students to get involved and help out their fellow man (or woman). This includes frequent blood drives on the main campus. There will be a blood drive on campus on Tuesday, November 17 from 10am to 4pm hosted by AUM Athletics and the College of Nursing and Health Sciences. Students wanting to donate blood will find the bloodmobile next to t...

Creating Healthy Relationships

BY: Jessica Alldredge Montgomery, Ala. – Oct. 31, 2020 – Creating relationships as an adult can be difficult to do. It takes a lot of work and understanding of how to maintain relationships. You need to have a stable base in order to build a relationship, and that base needs to be healthy. Being a college student today means you have little time for relationships, so it’s good to know how to keep those relationships healthy so they last well into the future. AUM’s Counseling and Health Promotion Services will be offering a group session on Tuesdays during the month of November that will allow students to learn about relationships and how to grow them. These group sessions will start on November 3, 2020, at 3:30 pm. They will focus on skills for creating positive and healthy relat...
