Planting the Seeds

About the Book

Planting The Seeds was a program specifically designed to expose more minority students to the existence and opportunities provided by attending one of the more than 140 Historically Black colleges and Universities. A partnership that was developed between two organizations, allowed the individuals involved in the creation and implementation of the program to expose a group of middle school students to the program. While the original audience were in grades 6-8, students in grades 9 and 10 can also be provided the program content. The enthusiasm and knowledge that were displayed by the participants throughout the delivery of the program content reinforced the importance of exposing more minority students to this valuable program content. The more the information was shared, the more those of us who had not attended an HBCU, wish that we had done so.
