Description

Explore the history and evolution of higher education for African-Americans with this Routledge publication. Starting in the 1830s, public and private institutions were established across Pennsylvania, Ohio, the Border States, and the former Confederacy to serve African-American students. For much of United States history, the vast majority of people of African descent obtained their post-secondary education through these historically black institutions. This book examines the developments that shaped these schools, including the impact of financial and accreditation challenges. It also covers the legal landscape, such as litigation used to ensure compliance with court decisions and the pursuit of equal higher education opportunities for all citizens. Readers will gain insight into the role of race in admissions decisions and the broader historical context of these institutions. This text provides a detailed look at how these colleges functioned and the factors that drove interest in their specific roles within the American educational system.
