Matthew Merritt Interview
No full textMatthew Merritt (Class of 2023) was interviewed by Laura Narvaez via the Zoom internet-based video conferencing software on May 9, 2023. Mr. Merritt was born on January 13, 2001 in Duncanville, Texas. He was raised by his grandparents with his younger brother in the same neighborhood his father grew up in. He describes how his grandparents' family was only the second Black family to move in and how the demographic had changed by the time Mr. Merritt was in grade school, with most of his classmates being African American or Hispanic. His grandparents implemented a structured routine growing up that emphasized education, faith, and family. Mr. Merritt is grateful for the time and care his grandmother put into raising him and his brother and calls her and his grandfather his MVPs. His love of choir in high school led him to switch his career focus from architecture to music education. He made All-State Choir his junior and senior years. While he was offered a full-ride scholarship to Mississippi State, he enrolled at SMU after being awarded their Dallas County Mustang scholarship and a room and board scholarship from the Meadows School of the Arts. Mr. Merritt talks fondly of the community he found at SMU among his fellow Rotunda Scholars, his Alpha Phi Alpha brothers, fellow members of the Association of Black Students (ABS), and especially the other two members of the ''Big Three'': Kennedy Coleman and Sparrow Caldwell. He states that his fraternity taught him how to maintain a work-life balance despite his intensive schedule as a Music Education major. However, Mr. Merritt describes feeling that he did not belong in his classes because so few of the students and faculty looked like him. Mr. Merritt was also president of the National Panhellenic Council his junior and senior years. His other extracurriculars included Southern Gentlemen, an acapella men’s group on campus, the Vice President of Student Affairs Student Advisory Board, and Black Men Emerging (for whom he was president his senior year). He was heavily involved with ABS, being secretary sophomore year, vice president junior year, and senior advisor his senior year. He helped plan the Black Excellence Ball, Black History Month events, turnover, and homecoming. His senior year, he and Kennedy Coleman were runners-up for homecoming king and queen, the highest a Black woman had ever gotten in the lineup. His year serving as secretary of ABS, 2020, was the same year the organization sent out their demands to the President and Vice President of the University. This led to the creation of the Black Unity Forum and implementation of Chief Diversity Officers across campus. As secretary, he had polled community members and drafted those demands. His experience exposed him to what those who came before him had gone through and how he could help create change. The Black at SMU Twitter thread and ''Black at SMU'' film also affected him greatly. He describes how much his voice teacher, Barbara Hill Moore, supported him and how much he admires the impact she's made on her students and SMU as a whole. Other mentors he names are Jennifer ''JJ'' Jones, his major advisor Dr. Julie Scott, and the Vice President of Student Affairs Dr. KC Mmeje. He believes that efforts from past students and staff, ‘’Black at SMU’’, community leaders like Kennedy Coleman, Sparrow Caldwell, Damondre Lynn, Nick Jones, and Alicia Foot, and Black Unity Forum (BUF) conveners like Paige Edwards, as well as ABS as a whole, have helped SMU become more accepting of their Black students. Mr. Merritt plans to become a middle or high school choral director with the ultimate goal of either becoming a school superintendent or working in college administration
