FSU also has invited middle and high school students, chosen as MLK scholars, to participate in its activities. The students will spend Wednesday morning in a workshop focusing on race and community relations, said Joy Bowen, executive assistant to the vice president of student affairs. Mfume's remarks come a day before the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights begins hearings in Tallahassee on complaints of voting irregularities in the recent presidential election. FSU encourages those attending to arrive early because of limited seating. Saunders is also FAMU's MLK award winner.
