For example, Allister Byrd (class of 2009), has traveled all over the United States as a member of the Cultural Leadership Program, a group dedicated to introducing African-American and Jewish students and culture to each other. And, Andrea Sullivan (class of 2009) has served as a representative of the American Red Cross in numerous, successful blood drives.
