Students from pagr A5 Piggott-Long educator, author and min ister. Piggott-Long praised Bcthune in her remarks. "Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune's teacher recom mended her for a scholar ship to the Scotia Seminary in Concord, where she studied Greek. Latin, the Bible and American Democracy. She wanted to give back what she learned; there fore. she decided to become a missionary to her own people back in Africa," said Piggott Long. "She attended Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, and when she graduated and applied to the Presbyterian Mission Board, she was told that they had no openings for a colored missionary in Africa. Of course, she was very disappointed, but she did not allow this roadblock to deter her. She decided that if she could not go to Africa, she would teach her peo ple at home in the South. So in 1904, with $1.50 in her pocket, a heart full of faith and a dream in her spirit, she and her family set out to begin a school for the girls in the shanty towns of Daytona (a school that would become Buthune Cookman University). You represent that power r *' ? I ful legacy today as you are inducted into this prestigious honor socie ty" Dr. Peggy A. Valentine, dean of the School of Health Sciences, also brought greetings. "To be inducted into this prestigious society means that you have excelled. Everyone is not a scholar. You undoubted ly worked hard, sacri ficed sleep, stayed in to read ahead while others partied, and you probably burned the candle on both ends to prepare yourself for classes," said Dr. Valentine. "1 am impressed, for I know that you are enrolled in a very challenging curricu lum."
