You may know the third\nMonday of January as MLK Day: a time to celebrate the life and legacy of the Rev.\nMartin Luther King Jr. You may also know it as a national holiday: a day off\nwork or school to get some much-needed rest. Sure, it is all of these things, but\nit was also designated as the National Day of Service by Congress in 1994.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, MLK Day is the\nonly federal holiday observed as a nationwide day of service. Because of this\ndesignation, it is often referred to as \u201ca day on, not a day off.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

King\u2019s life and legacy\ninspires us to serve not just on one day a year, but throughout our lives by\nbeautifying our community, advancing justice for all people and adding kindness\ninto the lives of others. I am inspired by King\u2019s challenge that we ask ourselves,\n\u201cWhat are you doing for others?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sure, it is true that we\nall deserve the rest that comes with a \u201cday off.\u201d But when I think about King\nand his leadership in the civil rights movement, his advocacy for federal\nprotections on the basis of race and identity, and the passage of the Civil\nRights Act, I see the importance of the \u201cday on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is because of King\u2019s\nlife and legacy that we celebrate him in a way that serves others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Monday\u2019s National Day of Service, members of the Transylvania University community will participate in the MLK Freedom March in downtown Lexington. We will be meeting in Gratz Perk for coffee and bagels at 9 a.m. and then heading downtown to join members of our sports teams. After the march, we will volunteer with Students Against Hunger and Homelessness at 1 p.m. in Hazelrigg basement. Then we will walk to the Kentucky Theatre, which has a free showing of the film \u201cGreen Book\u201d at 2:30 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
