Paul Quinn has been in Dallas since 1990. Producing servant leaders of change is the primary goal Paul Quinn has vowed to upkeep. Sticking to the Four L’s of Leadership and applying them is a must especially for the queen that has represented Paul Quinn College in its past, present and future.
According to SGA president, Patrick Hillard, “If you do not have a queen you can be proud of to represent your school, then how can you as a student feel proud to represent your school?” It is very imperative that we have a queen that represents Paul Quinn College.
Many people were very excited to find out who the new “Miss Paul Quinn” would be Thursday. This event was so memorable considering the large audience that attended and the atmosphere of the entire event.
When I first showed up, everyone’s attitude exhibited that of the vibrant balloons that decked the halls. Purple, black, and white was the theme colors for the whole ceremony. Black representing the struggle the college had to endure while relocating from Waco to Dallas, purple displaying the bountiful progress the college has and still is enduring, and finally white presenting the pureness the college is as a Christian Institution.
Denise Robinson, a sophomore at the college said that, “the event was very beautiful and well organized.” This was further proof of the impact the event had on its attendees.
Both alumni’s and students alike came to support the not yet unveiled “Miss Paul Quinn”. One of these special quests happened to be a former Miss PQC named Christy Dean. When asked what she recalled from her time running for Miss PQC in 2000-2001, she told me that the competition was, “So close there was no comfort in it.”
Other students that attended Paul Quinn during this time period had a lot of expectations from their school queen.
Paul Quinn College is known for Greatness. President Michael Sorrell simply states that, “One of the things that help bring spirit and creates an oral of excitement is a queen.”
The ceremony ended off on a great note. Christina Mason was chosen to be forever apart of Paul Quinn’s history as Miss PQC.
