In its second year and sponsored by the Elon Black Alumni Network, the Donning of the Kente cultural ceremony celebrates the achievements of graduating seniors who recognize their African roots. Each graduate received a stole made of kente cloth, a symbol of prestige in many African societies, handwoven especially for each graduate in a village in Ghana. Alexa Broderick ’13, an organizer and entrepreneur and the founder of the Equity Paradigm, gave the keynote address. For more information: https://www.elon.edu/e-net/Article/162574
