Edward Waters College
As a respected member of the community and an Edward Waters alumni, Glover always maintained a relationship with the college. Glover pledged to the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity while completing his undergraduate studies. He served on the presidential search committee which was formed in 2005 after a plagiarism scandal led to accreditation problems and the resignation of President Jenkins. That committee took two years to select Claudette Williams in 2007. Glover joined EWC's Board of Trustees in 2008, and when Williams resigned effective May 15, 2010, Glover was quickly approved as interim president. In February 2011, the position was made permanent.

Outside of cannibalism, which can be matched in this country, at least, by lynching, there is no vice and no degradation in native African customs which can begin to touch the horrors thrust upon them by white masters. Drunkenness, terrible diseases, immorality, all these things have been gifts of European civilization.”
