(April 29, 2011)--The UTSA Inclusion and Community Engagement Center announces Ayodeji "DJ" Daramola is the winner of the 2010-2011 Outstanding Black Student Leadership Award.
A senior mechanical engineering major with a 2.84 cumulative grade point average, Daramola is the past president of the UTSA chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc., past vice president and president of the UTSA chapter of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, past leadership development chair of the UTSA chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers, and former parliamentarian of the African Student Association.
