Ubiquity Well Represented At NAR
Dyanne Boone Baldwin, president of the NHAA's North Atlantic Region, truly knows how to organize a successful event. Last weekend in Delaware the NAR hosted a regional conference at the Hilton in Newark, which attended by Hampton alums from as far south as North Carolina.
On Friday there was a reception which was attended by President William R. Harvey, who later gave an HU state of the union address. During his remarks he had high praise for one of our classmates--Brett Pulley, dean of the Scripps Howard School of Journalism. Harvey said that BP was doing a "phenomenal job." Later that evening Miki Turner signed copies of her book, journey to the woman i've come to love" in the hospitality suite.
Saturday's workshops and luncheon were well-attended, too. Turner gave the keynote speech at the awards luncheon and signed books afterwards. She sold out her stock! Per usual Ubiquity represented. In addition to Baldwin and Turner, Janice Tyson, Jan Christopher, Dot Lee, Marcia Fields Milton and Brenda Mallory were in the mix.
