If you search these boards, you'll find several topics about MLK.
I run along the Hackensack River often. I have to say that I really appreciate having the MLK statue there. It's life-sized, against a picturesque scene which will only be enhanced when FDU soon replaces the pedestrian bridge across the river. There's a quiet, reflective place to sit, read, think. Students pass the statue on the way to class and can't help but feel inspired and encouraged. It feels personal,- like he's there saying, "Don't give up. You can do this. You are not alone."
