The Not-So-Secret Plot to Destroy HBCUs
Preview:
Iam finishing my year as the interim president of Talladega College. As reported, the College has experienced some difficult times, and I arrived last June to try to help begin resolving the issues. We've made progress, but as I told our alumni recently, we've moved from life support to intensive care, but it is possible to go back on life support without significant support. We have a long road to recovery, but I am excited that Dr. Willie Todd, Jr., has accepted the challenge. He's an HBCU grad and worked at several HBCUs in a senior capacity, including president. He gets it.
