In the Swag Achievement Organization's Swag Black & Gold Scholarship Program: 4 Years & Beyond, we acknowledge and celebrate the students within this program who have shown excellence in their academics, community involvement and civic duties. So, this year, Swag hosted an empowering and inspiring fundraising event called Swag Black & Gold Scholarship Gala to celebrate the Texas Southern University Chapter for displaying their 'Excellence in Achievement' with the CEO of W.O.W, Ms. Jan Pink at DoubleTree Hotel in Downtown Houston. The event was showered with the sounds of TSU very own Jazz band directed by Dr. Howard Harris, and uplifting performances from one of the Honorees of SWAG Honors 2016, Shelle Shotlow, TSU Chapter 2017-2018 Vice President & CEO of Legacy, Kristian "Greatness" Thomas, and CEO of D2D Entertainment, KoKo Chanell. Also, family and friends were able to enjoy the inspirational and comical keynote address by Houston native and KHOU news anchor & executive producer, Sherry Williams as they enjoy their meal and shared the room with intriguing and vibrant art from TSU alumni & co-founder of Love, Spirit & Truth Publishing, Mack L Bishop III.
The TSU Chapter are recognized as the SWAG Black & Gold Honorees of 2018. This chapter consist of both law students and undergraduates who raised the Chapter's avg GPA from 3.0 to 3.4, and accumulated over 1628 community services hours in between February 2017 through February 2018. Also, 80% of the Honoress made the Dean's list this school year (2017-18), and four graduated this May.
So, We, Swag Achievement Organization, salute our Texas Southern Chapter-SWAG Black & Gold Honorees of 2018 for solidifying our mission and vision as true LEADERS in BOTH ACADEMICS AND COMMUNITIES.....
Well done, SWAG BLACK & GOLD HONOREES OF 2018!!!
