Their modern version of swing covers songs inspired by Fats Domino, Louis Armstrong, Cab Calloway and many others.

Conversations on Diversity: In Search of the "African" in African-American, Feb. 20
Facilitated by Katherine Punteney, International Student Advisor
When African-American students study abroad in Africa, what expectations might they have about being welcomed back to their “homeland”? What happens if locals treat them as foreigners, rather than as “one of them”? What does it mean for Caucasian students to be in the minority? What about those that are neither black nor white? Join us in exploring these questions of identity, expectations, and the search for meaning in journeys abroad.
Join us Wed., Feb. 20, at noon in BMU 210; contact Tray Robinson at 4764 for additional information.
