10th Annual Uplifting Black Men Conference
Feb. 22, 2025
10 a.m. - 5 p.m. 

Thank you for your interest. Registration is now closed as this event has reached capacity. 

On Saturday, February 22, you won’t want to miss an empowering conference celebrating the 10th anniversary of our initiative to inspire Black male students at Virginia Tech and across the Commonwealth. This milestone honors the accomplishments of our students and the legacy of those who have supported them. A day before the conference (Friday, February 21), join us for The Dr. Wayne Scales Undergraduate Research and Creative Scholarship Symposium and Award, celebrating the innovative work of undergraduates and fostering intellectual curiosity. Learn more about the Symposium HERE.

While both events are free to attend, we invite you to consider supporting the Black Male Excellence Network at Virginia Tech through a gift at checkout to help us empower our students.

If you require accommodations to participate fully in our events due to a disability, please contact Patrick Wallace at 540-231-6362 or email patrickw21@vt.edu at least 10 business days before the event for assistance.
