Here are some useful resources to help you learn more about HBCUs:
A Digital Collection Celebrating the Founding of the Historically Black College and University is a collection of primary resources from HBCU libraries and archives. It includes several thousand scanned pages and represents HBCU libraries first collaborative effort to make a historic collection digitially available. Collections are contributed from member libraries of the Historically Black College and University Library Alliance.
The collection includes photographs, university correspondence, manuscripts, images of campus buildings, alumni letters, memorabilia, and programs from campus events.
These images present HBCUs as cultural, social, and political institutions from the early 1800's until today.
The purpose of this White House initiative is to strengthen the capacity of HBCUs to provide excellence in education. This website provides information on contracts, grants, scholarships, fellowships, conferences, and workshops. You'll also have access to governmental reports and studies on HBCUs.
The Black College Football Hall of Fame is sponsored by The Shack Harris & Doug Williams Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, tax-exempt organization that is dedicated to honoring the greatest football players and coaches from Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
