•Approximately 25% of African American graduates with STEM degrees come from HBCUs.

•Eight HBCUs were among the top 20 institutions to award the most science and engineering bachelor’s degrees to black graduates from 2008-2012.

•52% of first generation African American college students attend HBCUs

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. When they ask if HBCU’s are still relevant??
