Raised by his grandparents on nearby Russellville Road, as a young boy Dr. Edward L. Lee ’60 set his sights on attending Lincoln University. He knew a local physician who worked at Lincoln and was inspired by the stories of prominent alumni.

Lee worked hard, earning money by selling the Afro newspaper as a teenager. After being admitted to Lincoln, he once walked 3.5 miles to the mushroom plant where his grandmother worked in Oxford to pick up money to pay his tuition.

The expression “culture eats strategy for breakfast,” attributed to management guru Peter Drucker, reflects an understanding that organizational culture has the ability to undermine the most brilliant and well-conceived strategy if the two are not aligned.
