Georgia Southern will welcome Dr. Steve Perry, founder and principal of Capital Preparatory Magnet School in Hartford, Connecticut, to campus for the university's 2016 MLK Celebration on Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the Performing Arts Center. Perry was featured in CNN's "Black in America" series and is the most talked-about, innovative educator on the scene today. As the principal of Capital Prep, Perry has seen 100 percent of the predominantly low-income, minority, first-generation high school graduates go on to attend four-year colleges every year since its first class graduated in 2006.
