UNDERGRADUATE MEMBERS-AT-LARGE
Greetings Sorors !
I am Alysse Guerrier , Undergraduate Member-at-Large , and I would like to extend my congratulations to all of the 2021 graduates ! You have completed a major milestone in a pandemic , no less . As women of Alpha Kappa Alpha , we continue to reach for excellence because we are destined for success . Thank you to everyone for joining us in celebrating our seniors , and a special thank you to Congresswoman Nikema Williams for helping us recognize our graduates . Across Facebook and YouTube streaming platforms , the Commencement exercises had almost 40,000 views !
The Undergraduate Activities Committee appreciates you for all of your submissions and your oh so pretty graduation photos . We hope you enjoy your graduation gift from us to you ! To the sorors still continuing their journey of education , as the semester begins , I hope you all stay focused , resolve to work hard , and are successful in all endeavors .
Many of us are finding ourselves back on campus after an extended time of learning virtually , via zoom . Let us not lose sight that this pandemic is still rampantly changing and impacting our lives in ways that we could never imagine . Please be safe , take care of your health and protect yourself by wearing a mask , even if your university has lifted their mask mandate . Getting vaccinated is also a great way to increase your body ’ s defenses against Covid-19 and the Delta Variant . Schedule your vaccine with your local pharmacy , if you are afforded the opportunity !
Sisterly ,

Greetings ,
As I reflect on the past few months , I am so proud of what the Undergraduate Sorors of Alpha Kappa Alpha has accomplished . Each of you persevered through another school year within the global pandemic . In addition to achieving academic success , you all programmed amazing events and continued to live out this administration ’ s theme of Exemplifying Excellence Through Sustainable service . I am so proud of Undergraduate Sorors for your ability to finish out the 2020-2021 school year strong .
I would be remiss if I did not give a special congratulations to the graduating class of 2021 . We did it ! I am sure many of you can reflect upon the past year and wish things looked different , but that does not lessen the significance of what we accomplished as a graduating class . I hope that you all participated in the 2021 Virtual Commencement Celebration . The Undergraduate Activities Committee in conjunction with Madam Supreme Basileus , Dr . Glenda Baskin Glover , worked diligently to create a celebration that highlighted the amazing women of the class of 2021 . We wanted to make sure that the celebration displayed how proud the sorority is of graduating seniors and to wish Sorors good luck as they enter into this new phase in their lives . I am so excited about all that our graduating class goes on to accomplish in the world , and within our beloved sorority .
I look forward to continuing to R . E . A . C . H . within my role as one of your Undergraduate Members-at-Large . For those returning to campus , I wish you a healthy and prosperous school year . To the class of 2021 , I wish you the best of luck on your new journey !
Sisterly ,
