Unfinished Business: The Ceilings We Break

For over three decades, Capital University has been committed to recognizing, celebrating, and embodying the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Rather than treating this day as a "day off," we encourage our campus and community members to engage in a "day on" — a day to be inspired by Dr. King’s vision, reflect on his contributions to civil rights, and actively participate in community-building efforts.

Capital University continuously seeks creative and meaningful ways to honor Dr. King’s impactful teachings. We do this by exploring history in its entirety, including the political climate, the contributions of other civil rights leaders, the arts, and more. As an educational and religious institution, we proudly fulfill our role as a center for support, empowerment, cultural preservation, and innovation, creating a place where all are welcomed and inspired.

Join us on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, as students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members unite to celebrate Dr. King’s life, legacy, and enduring impact on our world.
