Greetings,
Fisk University! It is with humility and gratefulness that I say thank you to the student body for electing me as Miss Fisk University 2012-2013. I look forward to a year of renewal in Fisk spirit and the refinement of us as a student body. I enter this position with excitement and pure determination in hopes of assuring that this upcoming school year is successful.
My primary goal will be to focus on retention, recruitment, and relationships for the advancement of the university. I will incorporate my platform “Faith not In Sight but in Knowledge” in order to help others understand how great Fisk is. With your help the 2012-2013 school year will be one to be remembered. Again, I say thank you to the faculty, staff, and the entire student body of Fisk University, especially the Student Election Committee.
A Daughter Ever on the Altar,
Shalimar Leggett
