    Student Union Ballroom

    On November 23, 2012, 17 year old African American high school student Jordan Davis was fatally shot at a gas station in Jacksonville, FL by Michael Dunn.  Dunn’s lawyer cited Florida’s “Stand Your Ground” law in the closing arguments of the trial, continuing the controversy surrounding that law. 

    Join us to hear a powerful message from Jordan’s parents, Ms. Lucia McBath and Mr. Ronald Davis, on the topic “Lessons from a Broken Heart: Overcoming and Conquering Adversity.”
