Professor will be Keynote Speaker at University of Arkansas at Fort Smith African Night

The African Students Association at the University of Arkansas at Fort Smith will host its fifth annual African Night from 6-9 p.m. on April 7 in the Reynolds Room of the Smith-Pendergraft Campus Center, 800 N. 49th St.

Jericho Way Day Resource Center is the recipient of a grant from the University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service’s Hope Fund. The grant amounts to $595 and will be used to assist homeless Arkansans with the purchase of new identification cards and reissued birth certificates, both of which are important for access to housing, employment, and social services.

Bowman will draw from her academic and consulting experiences in Africa to discuss democratization trends in parts of Africa. The event will also include African cuisine, a performance by Bi-Okoto, an Ohio-based professional African dance company, and a fashion show.

Tickets are $8 for UAFS students or children 13 and younger and $15 for others. Contact Seth-Charles Nwachokor at (301) 633-3253 or nwach00@g.uafs.edu; Dr. Williams Yamkam at (479) 788-7981 or williams.yamkam@uafs.edu., or visit Room 112 of the Vines building on the UAFS campus to reserve tickets.
