In the twenty-first century, historical black colleges’ and universities are still needed today. The UNFC said “While the 105 HBCUs represent just three percent of the nation’s institutions of higher learning, they graduate nearly 20 percent of African Americans who earn undergraduate degrees” Many students are looking for higher education institutes to embrace their cultures in differences in society”. Most predominately white higher education place have misjudgment on African American. HBCU’s teaches African American how to have pride about their race and show enrichment black positive to envy. Also, many students will more African- American than the same slave stories. HBCU’s gives you a chance to bond with your fellow African American brothers and sister in respective setting. The HBCUs Greek life has a deep and rich history in it. If a student decides to go through the process of becoming part of the brotherhood or sisterhood .The student will gain a lot of information and learn new things about him or herself in the process. In the quote from the article ‘‘ Although called HBCUs, these 105 colleges and universities in the US support the education of all traditionally-marginalized groups – not just African-American and Hispanic/Latino(a), but any first-generation and/or low-wealth student who might not have a shot at higher education in another institution’’. HBCU schools give the student a sense of respect, honor and dignity in African American race and culture. The teaching valves of a HBCU are combining with education and spiritual growth. HBCU take their time to breakdown the information to student able to learn it. The spiritual side is the chapel most HBCU offer on their: Where students can feed their spiritual side by hearing a word from the preacher. HBCU have stood the test of time by many negative people with minds to destroy the colleges and universities. If HBCU are shut down and destroy by the government. The government will be killing a part of African American history in the process. HBCU are the cornerstones in this day of time for a good education than most predominately white higher education place. HBCU are key concepts to the African American education roots.

ReplyDelete~ this is very nice ~
ReplyDeleteYes HBCU's are critical to our society and communities. With out these schools many of us may have not been eligible to receive any higher education. I thank all the founders and I hope they continue to grow and prosper.
ReplyDeleteHBCU'S are our heritage and our future. Without a HBCU I honestly don't think I would have even went to college, I thought school was over after HS. I never filled out college apps, went to college fair or trips. I mean I was young, always high and school wasn't a priority, until my mother moved to Jackson and I learned about Lane. Lane gave me a chance at college thanks to it being a HBCU. Nice blog
