Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Unique Role and Mission of Historically Black Colleges and Universities Monday, September 12, 1988 House of Representatives, Subcommittee on Postsecondary Education, Committee on Education and Labor, Durham, NC. The subcommittee met, pursuant to notice, at 10:17 a.m., in the Health and Sciences Building Auditorium, North Carolina Central University, Durham, North Carolina, Honorable Pat Williams, (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Members present: Representatives Williams, Owens and Valentine. Staff present: Rick Jerue, majority counsel, Patricia Sullivan and Michael Lance, legislative associates. Mr. Williams. I call this hearing of the Subcommittee on Postsecondary Education to order. This is an oversight hearing on Historically Black Colleges and Universities. I am very pleased to convene this hearing of the Subcommittee on Postsecondary Education on this particularly impressive campus. When my colleagues, Chairman Gus Hawkins of the Education and Labor Committee and Congressman Major Owens first discussed this hearing with me, we agreed that the ideal place to hold it would be on a quality campus. I am grateful to the entire North Carolina Central community for the assistance they have given us as we have worked to put this hearing together. The issue before us today, the role and mission of our nation´s historically black colleges and universities, represents an important episode in the history of American higher education. It is an episode that has been marked with great success and accomplishment, and I underscore its importance. This subcommittee is taking the unprecedented step of dedicating an entire hearing solely to the topic of historical black colleges and universities. Colleges created to serve black Americans have existed for more than 135 years. During this period, these institutions have demonstrated their ability to meet the special needs of black students. In order to put the accomplishments of these institutions into perspective, I note that there are only slightly more than one hundred historically black colleges and universities in this country. That, by the way, is out of three thousand, two hundred colleges and universities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
