Nottingham Alumna Inspires Current Students to Pursue Their Passions

"If you can envision it, it can be possible!"
Nottingham High School alumna Natasha Alford (’04) recently returned to her alma mater to participate in a question & answer session with a group of SUPA and AP history students. The acclaimed journalist and author spoke about her book, American Negra, which she calls ‘a love story to Syracuse’ and a coming-of-age tale. She spoke about the power of a young person’s mind and encouraged the students to listen to the desires of their hearts and become involved in activities they are passionate about.
