CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - This is Homecoming Week for Johnson C. Smith University (JCSU). Many alumni are expected to return to campus to remember their days while in college.

Leaders hope the graduates will say they will continue to support their alma mater. President Dr. Valerie Kinloch has been in charge since August 2023. She is a graduate of Johnson C. Smith University and is looking forward to this year’s homecoming.

“It’s an exciting time to be a Golden Bull.” Dr. Kinloch said.

Kinloch is looking forward to Saturday’s football game against Bluefield State University. She is proud of what the team is doing on and off the field.

“Our football team has one of the highest GPAs in the CIAA,” Kinloch said. “We’re not pushing for just a 3.0 but beyond. They are doing great work.”
