Leading the Way in HBCU Research
HBCUs continue to outperform expectations as engines of opportunity; enrolling and graduating students at rates that far exceed their share of higher education, particularly in STEM fields. That's one of the major findings of a new report, "Still Punching Above their Weight," released by UNCF's Frederick D. Patterson Research Institute (FDPRI). We'll hear from FDPRI's Vice President --an HBCU historian, scholar, and N.C. A&T Aggie-- Dr. Jelani M. Favors, on the work of FDPRI in being a leading research voice and authority on HBCUs and keep telling the valuable stories of these historic institutions.
