| 12 | VideoHarrisburg MLK Day Celebration Looks at Civil Rights Pioneer William Howard Day - Todd Mealy | Harrisburg MLK Day Celebration Looks at Civil Rights Pioneer William Howard Day Todd Mealy, author of a biography on Day, discusses the impact of both King and Day. On Thursday, January 19th, the Harrisburg campus hosted its annual Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration at noon in the Pit. Following a welcome from Dean Linda L.
