Brianna Jarvis arrived on the Auburn University campus to start her freshman year in fall 2017 as a shy introvert unsure about what her future would hold.

This fall, the senior will help lead the Auburn University Marching Band (AUMB) onto the field in front of nearly 88,000 loyal football fans at Jordan-Hare Stadium as the band plays the Auburn fight song and whips the crowd into a frenzy.

Jarvis, a first-generation college student from tiny Reeltown, will be making history as the school’s first Black female drum major.
