A second semester sophomore at
The University of Missouri (Mizzou) my name is Miss Alexis Rogers a Broadcast Journalism
major with a minor in Sociology. Since I began my college career I have devoted
my time to academics and community service. I am an Anchor and Reporter at the
local NBC affiliate KOMU 8, the secretary of MU’s chapter of National
Association of Black Journalists, a media assistant for Mizzou’s athletic media
department, and a member of the university’s Tour Team and United
Ambassadors, which is a minority recruitment program. During my collegiate
career thus far, I am striving to gain experience in the field of journalism along with being a well-rounded part of the community. My short term goal is to secure an internship
in my hometown of Chicago during my summer break. It is my hope, dream, and aspiration to give a voice to the voiceless through journalism. Besides academic social clubs and studies, I have spent numerous hours
at the Boys and Girls Club, Granny’s house, and babysitting. All in all, I keep
myself quite busy.
This
semester I have been selected to participate in the University of
Missouri-Columbia Zeta Alpha Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc. Miss
Black and Gold Scholarship Pageant. Judging in the pageant is based on the
following segments: opening/introduction, sports/swim wear, talent segment, and
impromptu question. I would love for everyone to attend, but I know with companies
to run, weddings, and graduations coming up in the spring season that
attendance may be a little difficult. Outside of segments in the pageant, we
are judged by the number of ads that we sell. Your support in purchasing an ad
that will be placed in the ad book for the pageant would be greatly appreciated.
The ad book allots for the opportunity of not only support but business or
personal recognition that will be viewed by university students, professionals as well
as members of the community. The money collected will go towards the
scholarships that will be awarded to the pageant winner. I am very excited
about this pageant and I pray that my hard work does not go unrecognized. The scholarship
pageant will be held at the University of Missouri on Friday, April 20, 2012.
Your support in any fashion would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Miss
Alexis Rogers
