Danielle Geathers, a rising junior from Miami, will be the first black woman president in MIT's 159-year history
When college student Danielle Geathers returns to campus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the fall, it’ll be in historic fashion as the school’s first black female student body president.
“It didn’t surprise me that no black women had been president,” Geathers told MIT’s student newspaper. “Someone asked if the UA president was a figurehead role [during the debate]. I think no, but minimally, a black female in that role will squash every perception that MIT is still mostly white and male.”
