Last year around this time I wrote about how important it is to honor the bridge builders in our lives, and to be bridge builders for others after attending the Black Alumni Association‘s homecoming events at Oakland University.

I was reminded of the significance of that message again after attending homecoming this year. Dr. Manuel Pierson was such a bridge builder for students of color on OU’s campus.
