QUEEN LIONESS!!!
The University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (formerly Arkansas AM&N) is one of 84 Historically Black Colleges and Universities that participates in the Black Executive Exchange Program (BEEP) annually and has been involved in BEEP for more than thirty years. Because of the outstanding program format and participation from corporate executives, which include UAPB alumni, the institution has been voted the Black Executive Exchange Program University of the Year.


Three students were selected to participate in the 43rd Annual BEEP Conference which was sponsored by UPS, Johnson & Johnson, and Unilever. The theme for this year’s conference was “Leadership Development = Empowered Employmentâ€￾.


The UAPB students were: Marion Muhammad (Junior, Business Management)
Courtney Mazique (Junior, Biology)
Richard Manning (Senior, Industrial Technology)


The Black Executive Exchange Program is a voluntarily partnership between the National Urban League, corporate America, government, non-profits, and other institutions to loan African-American executives to participating colleges as “Visiting Professorsâ€￾. Visiting Professors lecture in credit-bearing courses that correspond to their industries and participate in other BEEP-related activities such as networking sessions, workshops, and mock job interviews. BEEP’s mission is to share learning experiences across generations, cultivate new leaders, and inspire achievements “beyond the possibleâ€￾ through committed involvement and operational excellence.




CONGRATULATIONS UAPB! :tup::clap:
