Greetings Class of 2015, My name is Darius Thomas, a sophomore Speech-Language Pathology

& Audiology major from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I will serve as your 2011-

2012 Vice-President for the School of Communications Student Council.

This school year will be phenomenal unlike any other. The programs, the

mentor-mentee program and the opportunities that Student Council will

put on for you will actually leave you speechless. The Square One

Administration ran on the platform “Learning from the Past to Improve

the Future”, as we learn from mistakes made in the past we will build

upon something great for YOU! I really hope that you come into Howard

University open minded, ready to learn and to experience a new lifestyle.

Throughout the School Year please stop by the council office on the 1st

floor in Rm. C…just to say hello or to give some of your ideas or maybe

even your grievances of things that you may like to see changed. I look

forward to seeing you as you matriculate throughout Howard University.

Feel free to contact me through email at dariuslthomas@yahoo.com,

through cell at 225-806-1769 or visit the council office in the School of

Communications anytime between 9:00am – 5:00p.m.

Sincerely, Darius Thomas Vice-President

Normally this page would be to

inform you of what is going on

in the University. First—here is

a message for old heads and

newcomers alike:

You’re at Howard University. Now what?

Rule No.1: getting here was the easy part. Too

many people focus on the fact that they ATTEND

Howard. And? No one at Howard cares,

because, guess what? We ALL go here too. It’s

not about where you start or how you start; it’s

about how you finish. Remember that. Rule No.2:

Don’t get caught up. Girls, Guys, Grades. Life,

love, liberty. It is incredibly easy to get caught

up in the fame, the fake, and the foolish. Be

2

honest with yourself: what are you here for? You

answer that question and let that guide your

decision.

Rule No. 3: Being a student at Howard is a mirror of

you. You decided to come here. What does that say

about you? You decided to study in the School of

Communication. Why? The habits you develop or

perfect here will likely determine the person you are

and will become.

Don’t like what you realize about yourself in the

mirror? Change it.
