Morris Brown College Day; recognize March 21, 2025
This resolution designates March 21, 2025, as "Morris Brown College Day" at the Georgia state capitol. It ceremonially recognizes Morris Brown College - a historically significant institution founded in 1885 by the African Methodist Episcopal Church as Georgia's first college solely under African American leadership - and its 130+ years of educational service. The resolution has no policy or funding implications; it is purely commemorative, directing the Senate Secretary to distribute a copy to the college.
