I have always wondered how some of the buildings got their names. To know the beginning of the building is to know the legacy of your major. My interest in my major influenced me to continue my research on certain buildings. The legends that the buildings are named after have contributed much time, finance, and education to our university. Some of the fields that we have did not exist during the opening of Howard University. My major, particularly, did not become a part of Howard until a year before I was born. But because Earnest Everett, Anne Cooke, Lulu Childers and Ira Aldridge, I can now produce my desire into a study. Not all of these individuals attended Howard; however, they contributed a tremendous outreach. I believe that their activity with in different universities and various places outside of their place of study is a result of the same encouragement teachers here give the students today, to take part of things with in our major but outside of our school. The fact that none of these historians were dancers but laid the spiritual foundation for the floors I now dance on shows that the examples we are given by these founders can be the same strategy we could possibly use to generate various fields of study, in order to develop solutions in human challenges.-birgundi baker
