Student Mag Ad.indd 1 2/1/07 4:25:50 PM Black History Where it All Began! Americans have recognized black history annually since 1926, first as “Negro History Week” and later as “Black History Month.” What you might not know is that black history had barely begun to be studied — or even documented — when the tradition originated. Although blacks have been in America at least as far back as colonial times, it was not until the 20th century that they gained a respectable presence in the history t ur e : B la c k H is to ry books.
F e a Blacks Absent from History Books We owe the celebration of Black History Month, and more importantly, the study of black history, to Dr. Carter G. Woodson. Born to parents who were former slaves, he spent his childhood working in the Kentucky coal mines and enrolled in high school at age twenty. He graduated within two years and later went on to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard. The scholar was disturbed to find in his studies that history books largely ignored the black American population-and when blacks did figure into the picture, it was generally in ways that reflected the inferior social position they were assigned at the time.
Established Journal of Negro History In 1926, he launched Negro History Week as an initiative to bring national attention to the contributions of black people throughout American history. Woodson chose the second week of February for Negro History Week because it marks the birthdays of | 10 | WWW.HBCUCONNECT.COM
two men who greatly influenced the black American population, Black History Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln. However, February has Where it All Began! much more than Douglass and Lincoln to show for its significance in black American history. For example:
• February 23, 1868: W.E.B. DuBois, important civil rights leader and co-founder of the NAACP, was born. • February 3, 1870: The 15th Amendment was passed, granting blacks the right to vote. • February 25, 1870: The first black U.S. senator, Hiram R. t ur e : B la c k H is to ry Revels (1822-1901), took his oath of office.
• February 12, 1909: The National Association for the F e a Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was founded by a group of concerned black and white citizens in New York City. • February 1, 1960: In what would become a civil-rights movement milestone, a group of black Greensboro, N.C., college students began a sit-in at a segregated Woolworth’s lunch counter. • February 21, 1965: Malcolm X, the militant leader who promoted Black Nationalism, was shot to death by three Black Muslims. Black History Month is used as an opportunity to recognize the significant contributions people with African heritage have made and continue to make in such areas as education, sports, medicine, art, culture, public services, economic development, politics and human rights.

Tips By Jessica Johnson orried about how you’re going to t ur e : Sc h o larshi p T I P S Wpay for your education?
F e a Alright. So you’ve made it through the fall semester on partial scholarships and loans, but the spring semester may be looking a little shaky. Wouldn’t it be great to win a private scholarship to ease some of your financial burden? As a Howard University graduate and a recipient of over $200,000 in scholarships, I’ve learned a few tips that can assist students in identifying potential funding sources. 1. Apply Only To Those Awards That You Are Eligible For. The quickest way to eliminate yourself from a scholarship competition is to not meet one of the requirements. Take time to research scholarships that fit your profile. 2. Getting Involved Is Key. Organizations such as the Public Relations Student Society of America and the National Association of Black Journalists provide scholarships for their members. Linking up with these organizations early will help build your resume and increase your scholarship pool. | 20 | WWW.HBCUCONNECT.COM
3. Maximize Your Eligibility. We all have passions. Using those passions to help others will make you more attractive to scholarship committees. Most scholarship committees are looking for students who have found creative ways to give back to their community. For project ideas to maximize your eligibility, visit Scholarship www.thevolunteercenter.org or www.youthbuild.org. 4. Minimize Your Playing Field. To find those awards that will best fit your profile, start small and build your way up. Consider Tips categories such as your major/specialization, city and state of residence, special conditions or disabilities, and your organizational involvement. The scholarships in these more specific categories are generally less competitive, which increases your chance of winning. t ur e : Sc h o larshi p T I P S 5. Write Right. The essay can basically make or break It is never too F e a your application. Use it as an opportunity to brag on yourself (but make sure you late to find tell the truth) and prove to the scholarship committee what scholarships. sets you apart from the other applicants. Tailor your essay to directly address their criteria, and most importantly ANSWER THE QUESTION! The most important thing to remember is that it is never too late to find scholarships. It just takes a little research on your part. Over the course of the year I will be sharing more tips to help you maximize your funding potential.
