As I sat in Sisters Chapel, on Spelman's College campus next to my sisters and with those who have came before me and even some who will follow, I was moved to tears. I enjoyed every moment of Founder's Day 2009. Spelman College students, faculty and staff put together a wonderful presentation that I loved. There were guests that meant so much to me from the oldest living Spelman Alumni to Cassie Davis and Jasmine Guy. I felt like I understood the true meaning of me being here. I felt as though I was out of myself, and that being apart of Spelman made is something larger than myself. I fell that not only am I apart of Spelman, but Spelman is apart of me.
There are a lot of girls that upset me during this particular convocation. I realize that we did have to wake up early which even I wasn't happy about but I did understand the importance of the day and that missing this is something that shouldnt be. I cannot understand why girls would chose to come here if they are not interested in any of the traditions or the importance of this school. Usually I would go on to say how much I am disappointed and sad because they will realize the importance and the greatness of 
Spelman.
