MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. CELEBRATION HISTORY
For many years, Western Michigan University’s Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Committee organized a celebration of Dr. King’s life, work and commitment to social justice. During the ensuing years, several major events and numerous smaller ones have been built into what has become an annual celebration that launches in January each year. The campuswide Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration continues to grow and evolve.
