Created as an opportunity to educate students, faculty, and staff about the major achievements of African American students and organizations that foster African American culture at Elon, the Wall of Fame is the centerpiece of Elon's African American Resource Room. The exhibit traces the accomplishments of African Americans at the University from the first black graduate, to the first black Greek organization.
Located in the Multicultural Center, the Wall of Fame can be viewed during operating hours.
