[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My (black) HS junior wants to go to an HBCU but I think he can do better than that. (I went to one of the best HBCUs myself, but I found that it was disorganized and did not challenge me to be my best.) My child grew up in predominantly white/Asian suburbs but nearly all his friends have been black. Can anyone recommend a college at a high academic level with a significant number of black students/professors?[/quote] Hi OP - I am a local university career director. I would urge you to consider listening to your son + pet him visit some HBCUs. Every employer I know (hundreds) is scrambling now to hire AAs +other POCs. Since I work at private university with a majority white population, I cannot really ID who the black students are. At an HBCU, your child would have many more job opportunities right now. Why not capitalize on that?[/quote]
