    This week we're exploring the college experience at a Historically Black College and University (HBCU). HBCUs were established in the United States early in the 19th century, to provide undergrad and graduate-level educational opportunities to people of African descent because these students were unwelcome elsewhere, even after the passing of specific legislation, which resulted in a lack of higher education on opportunities. We discuss the impact HBCUs have on their academic journey, career, their identity, and their culture. This episode features Brent Tilley and friends of the foundation, Brandon Bailey, Keisean Raines, and Dr. Shanique McCallister-Nixon. If you've ever considered an HBCU, part 1 of our discussion should help you figure things out!
