Focus Collection: Leadership at HBCUs

Historically black colleges and universities have a special mission to educate African Americans, and they face many challenges in doing so. Their students are disproportionately from low-income families and are often academically underprepared. The colleges themselves have limited financial resources. Strong, inspired leadership is needed to help the institutions thrive and, sometimes, even survive.

This 24-page collection looks at the issues that presidents of historically black institutions must contend with, including problems that are common to many colleges and others that are particular to HBCUs.
