The BWI Tiger Class of 87-90 through the leadership of the president Mr. Michael Scott traveled to Liberia in March 2020 and visited the Booker Washington Institute campus. He and his vice president Ms. Kou Gbamore met with the principal of Booker Washington Institute, Mr. Harris F. Tarnue. The visit was mainly to do an assessment/need analysis of the various departments of the institution. We conveyed to the principal that it was the desire of the organization to undertake some meaningful projects at the institution.
