Dear Shaw Bears,
Yesterday's edition of the alumni newsletter incorrectly stated the passing of Mrs. Marie Bond Gibson '63. Mrs. Gibson is not deceased. We sincerely apologize for the error. Mrs. Gibson lost her husband, Mr. Donald Gibson, who was eulogized on January 13, 2016 in Chesapeake, Virginia. Our condolences to the Gibson family.
Sincerely,
Valentino Bryant

Thank you Greater Atlanta Alumni Chapter!
The Greater Atlanta Alumni Chapter of the Shaw University National Alumni Association recently turned out to support the Shaw Men's basketball team as they played in the first SIAC/CIAA Basketball Classic the weekend of Dec 19-20th at Clark Atlanta University. The Bears fell to Clark-Atlanta Panthers on the opening day but was victorious over the Fort Valley State University Wildcats on day two. Pete Chamberlain, great great grandson of Dr. Henry Martin Tupper, also came out to support the team.
The Chapter also treated the Men's team, coaches and parents in attendance to a full meal at Piccadilly's Restaurant after the game. The post game event included former NBA player and Atlanta Hawks broadcast analyst Mike "The Stinger" Glenn, who spoke to the team about the attributes needed to win on and off the court. Mr. Glenn addressed the team and answered their many questions. Mr. Glenn, who is also an author and motivational speaker, appeared as a favor to Dr. J.C. Futrell '77. The Atlanta Chapter is led by President, Joe Jackson'76 and VP David Linton '80 and Secretary Cheryl Miller '80 and Treasurer Frank Bradley '65.
