Send us a textBreaking news from Howard University shakes up the HBCU leadership landscape as President Ben Vincent III announces he'll step down as the institution's 18th president effective August 31st, 2025. This surprise Friday announcement from the Board of Trustees marks a significant moment for one of America's premier historically Black universities.During his tenure, Dr. Vincent prioritized advancing Howard's strategic initiatives in cutting-edge fields like artificial intelligence and data science while expanding global engagement opportunities for students. Board Chair Leslie D. Hale formally acknowledged Dr. Vincent's contributions, expressing gratitude for his service and leadership while wishing him well in future endeavors. Dr. Vincent himself reflected that his primary focus has always been the Howard community's well-being and success, noting that he plans to spend time with family and continue his research after departing.The transition brings a familiar face back to Howard's leadership. Dr. Wayne Frederick, the university's highly-regarded 17th president and current president emeritus, will step in as interim president while the board conducts its search for the next permanent leader. Dr. Frederick's previous presidency was marked by significant academic advancements and athletic program growth, making him a trusted figure to guide the university through this period of change. Presidential transitions at HBCUs carry special significance in higher education, and having Dr. Frederick's steady hand at the helm should provide continuity during what could otherwise be a challenging time.What qualities should Howard University seek in its next leader? How might this change impact Howard's trajectory in the coming years?

Historically Black colleges and universities have played a vital role in educating generations of students. But today, enrollment among Black males at HBCUs is at its lowest level since the mid-1970s. Studies indicate that when Black men disengage from HBCUs and higher education, the consequences are far-reaching. We examine the impact, why this is happening, what schools are doing to combat it and more.

Researchers at Kennesaw State University are trying to better understand Alzheimer's disease and how to treat it. They are now using advanced computational modeling and drug discovery simulations that could potentially speed up treatment research. Rose talks with Chloe Yixin Xie, an assistant professor of information technology and Johaan Kathilankal Jis, a sophomore computer science student at KSU. Plus, the nation’s historically Black colleges and universities, known as HBCUs, are the focus of a new book titled "Black, Not Historically Black: Towards the Pan-Black College and University." In the book, author Dr. Joseph Jones, who serves as the executive director of the W.E.B. Du Bois Southern Center for the Study of Public Policy, and an associate professor of political science at Clark Atlanta University-offers a critique of HBCUs. He talks with show host Rose Scott about why he believes HBCUs should evolve—from identifying as “historically Black” to “pan-Black.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

NIL sent shockwaves through college athletics when it was signed into law in 2021. Now student-athletes could earn money off of their name, image, and likeness. But there weren't any guide-rails to help student-athletes navigate the new NIL landscape. Enter Kim Whitler. She co-wrote Athlete Brands: How to Benefit from Your Name, Image and Likeness. And: In 2020, Sha'Carri Richardson was barred from representing Team USA at the Tokyo Olympics because she tested positive for marijuana. Jo Morrison says there are many other elite athletes like Richardson who've had their reputations tarnished for taking banned substances that have little to no evidence of enhancing performance. Later in the show: For runners, there's nothing like the freedom of lacing up your shoes and putting foot to pavement, logging mile after mile in the open air. Sabrina Little studies how running can hone virtues that are beneficial to life outside of sports. Plus: While golf might not be a high-octane contact sport like basketball or football, it's something you can play throughout your life and even into your later years. Carray Banks is on a mission to generate funding to field both women's and men's golf teams at all HBCUs in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference.

This week's show kicks off with Rome welcoming listeners, sharing music picks, and paying tribute to Malcolm Jamal Warner, reflecting on his impact alongside nods to Ozzy Osbourne and Hulk Hogan. From there, Jab leads a deep dive into hip-hop's evolving style, from Run-D.M.C.'s Adidas tracksuits to today's Balenciaga fits, exploring how regional trends and social media have shaped the culture. Next, the hosts debate talent vs. rapper—is lyrical skill still essential in 2025, or has branding and presence taken over? Jab then unpacks the rise of “begging music” in rap, spotlighting emotional tracks from Drake, Future, and Rod Wave, before Shan takes listeners on a nostalgic ride through TV one-hit wonders—shows like The Get Down, Lovecraft Country, and South Central that deserved more than one season. Rome brings the conversation back to the present with a breakdown of Howard University's financial aid controversy, where students face sudden debts despite holding scholarships.
