St. Philip's College - Celebrating 120 Years of Service

Taking a moment to reflect on how grateful I am to serve the students of St. Philip’s College - such a historic institution. Here’s to another 120 years of empowering the lives of all those who walk our halls.

It's Going to Be a Great School Year!

The coolest thing just happened - Ms. Christina Perez, who is a junior w/ our St. Philip's Early College High School just brought this by my office. It’s going to be a GREAT school year!!!

Creating a Academic Pathway Towards Empowerment

As educators, let's ensure we are creating an environment for ALL students to succeed. All of our students deserve to cross the finish line towards productive citizenship and financial empowerment.  

Be Great!

Do NOT allow fear to stop you. Be Great!

Waiting on Greatness

Rather than waiting on one man to make "America great again", what are you doing to advance your own families, schools, and communities? Greatness starts with YOU!

Finding Our Purpose

Just because we aspire, doesn't mean that we will obtain. More the reason why we must find purpose in everything we experience.

Appreciated Encouragement

It's awesome how you can receive encouragement, when you least expect it. I was down in the lobby waiting on my to-go order when this gentleman (Dr. Solomon Tention) stopped me and asked, are you Dr. Mordecai Brownlee? I watch your ItsDrMordecai videos all the time! Great moment, and the encouragement I needed. Thank you, Dr. Tention.

Breaking the Cycle

Educating our youth is key to eliminating generational poverty. #StudentsFirst
