Case Western Reserve University honors Martin Luther King Jr.—the holiday, the man, and the legacy. The CWRU campus community and the general public are invited to the University’s annual Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Friday, Jan. 19, 2024. The keynote speaker will be Tiffany Cross, media personality and political analyst.
