Howard University, the undisputed “Mecca of Black Intelligentsia” was long overdue for an annual alumni celebration dedicated to honoring its distinguished pioneers, leaders, and legends whose influence and contributions span across every industry category. From politics to entertainment, to medicine, media, and business; like cream Howard University graduates and alumni always manage to rise to the top. In 2022, the inaugural Bison Honors Awards Dinner & Royal Blue Gala was honored to fill that void. We are now pround to say that Bison Honors has become a homecoming staple and soon to be time-honored Howard University Homecoming tradition.
