Ep. 28: Why you belong at a Black college.
We had the chance to chat with Nicole Ford Miller about the incredible work she does around HBCUs.
Together with Nicole, who is an educational consultant, event producer, HBCU advocate, and the author of ‘You Belong at a Black College,’ we delve deep about the importance and impact of HBCUs.

Black college tours
Black college fairs
Black college reunion for alumni
Virtual male black youth summit and virtual HBCU summit
And more
Why opting for HBCUs is a terrific choice [24:24]

They’re a great choice for those who don’t want to go to mainstream choices like Pelman and Morehouse
The educational cultural competence
The social experience in HBCUs can’t be replicated
Gaining invaluable network of black professionals
Bigger challenges for HBCUs [27:06]
Spreading the word—sometimes families don’t know that HBCUs are as competitive as other colleges
Parents sometimes don’t realize that HBCUs are home for black students
Navigating through the haze [35:28]

For parents: expose your kids to new things, things they haven’t seen before
The assurance that HBCUs are a place where you can become the best version of yourself
