I was a student before with MISD during other similar walkouts. Never did it myself, but I supported it. They ask. They note who (and why - most understood my parent's getting onto me a valid reason not to walkout) was or wasn't there. The school also would always mark tardy if students where late. They knew it happened and let students do it.

Evora: We were born in Virginia, though our family moved to Newark, New Jersey, so we could attend integrated public schools. Believe it or not, when my 8th grade teacher asked where we wanted to go to college, I answered Princeton. The whole class laughed at me because Princeton was still all men at that time.

That became our primary network of people because, frankly, some of our classmates didn’t view us as people who belonged on campus. As we have gone back to Reunions through the years, some people have actually apologized for not getting to know us while we were stud...
Daphne: Ivy and I were freshmen when Evora was a senior and she pretty much drew a line down campus! We didn’t see her much because she lived in Spelman and we were in Wilson College. But we had been exposed to Princeton through Evora while we were in high school. That obviated the need for her to explain this or that once we were freshmen. For ins...
Ivy: My daughter’s experience as a student in the 2000s was drastically different from my own. Her network of friends came from all over the world and from all different backgrounds; that diversity is a good thing. She was a member of an eating club. That never would have happened when my sisters and I were students. Daphne: The interactions betwee...
Ivy: We’ve encouraged some of our friends to attend. We tell them the atmosphere on campus is much different than when we were undergraduates and very welcoming. Between the “She Roars” conference for women alumni and previous black alumni conferences, I’ve also met younger alumni that I’ve stayed in touch with.
