The week of Feb. 8, BUSM will celebrate Rebecca Lee Crumpler’s 190th birthday with a virtual symposia and discussions to raise additional scholarship funds in her name for students demonstrating financial need, with first preference for Black women and second preference for students from underrepresented communities who are Black or Hispanic/Latinx.
