  • 14 the Critical Role of Historically Black Colleges and Universities in Workforce Development
    14 The Critical Role of Historically Black Colleges and Universities in Workforce Development Todd Greene Ashley Bozarth Civil rights leader and distinguished American educator Benjamin Elijah Mays stated, “For he who starts behind in the great race of life must forever remain behind or run faster than the man in front” (Colston 2002, p. 96).1 Despite the passage of more than 150 years since the end of formal slavery, African Americans are still behind based on nearly all economic measures, including wealth and economic mobility. It should come as no surprise then that African Americans fare no better in the labor market, where wages lag behind their white coun- terparts. While the roots and causes of these gaps are myriad, it is clear, as Dr. Mays suggests, that extraordinary measures and targeted approaches are needed to arrive at greater economic equality. There has been some progress, including higher rates of high school degree completion, but much work remains.2 Historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) play a major role in preparing this population for the workforce. In addition to both academic- and technical-oriented degree offerings, confidence-building support offered through HBCU environments also can offer graduates a fundamental cornerstone for workforce success.3 The origins of today’s more than 100 HBCUs vary. Some started as state-sponsored land grant institutions, others were sponsored by reli- gious organizations, and still others were the benefactors of wealthy philanthropists. Their missions, however, have been essentially uni- form: to provide higher education opportunities primarily to students of color who at that time were largely excluded from other colleges or universities or in some cases did not feel comfortable in these institu- 189 190 Greene and Bozarth tions.4 With legal and cultural changes, especially over the past five decades, some observers have questioned the necessity for institutions designed to serve a particular racial population, thus viewing HBCUs as anachronisms.

  • John Silvanus Wilson Jr
    MINORITY SERVING INSTITUTIONS ORAL HISTORIES PROJECT JOHN SILVANUS WILSON JR. By Kelly Lewis On March 2, 2018, I arrived at a table to greet a tall, slender African- American man. I was surprised to discover he was wearing a sweatshirt, in comparison to the suit I have often seen him wearing in photographs. He was kind, and soft-spoken; he talked with conviction. He possessed a positive spirit –saintly even– and when I started asking him questions about his past, his eyes lit up as he recalled fond memories. He thinks of his family, church, and the abundance of ways God has facilitated inspirational experiences that have led him to become the person—the leader— he is today. John Silvanus Wilson Jr. was born in 1957 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As the son of a preacher and a teacher, he and his three siblings had what he would call “…the life of the mind and the life of the spirit.” Education and faith were important aspects of his upbringing. His grandfather had a doctorate, and both of his parents attended HBCUs –his father was, a Virginia Union University alumnus, and his mother, a Morgan State University alumna; at the same time, his “Dad … Granddad, great-granddad were all preachers… So, I had the preacher-teacher combination. That combination really shaped me.” As he continued to discuss his upbringing, his face fell and became a bit more serious. “When I was eight years old… we moved out to the suburbs and uh, my parents divorced.” During this time, suburban schools were attempting to diversify their population, so they were offering higher paying jobs.

    Application for ACRL Excellence in Academic Libraries Award December 4, 2015 Introduction According to management author Peter Drucker, “If you want something new, you have to stop doing something old.” Almost a decade ago, the Atlanta University Center (AUC) Robert W. Woodruff Library made a radical departure from the old to re-envision the library through a lens of innovation and excellence. This re-envisioning was framed through the eyes of our stakeholders who collaborated in the development of strategic plans over a 10-year period. Each plan yielded outcomes aligned with the institutional missions of the AUC schools. Each plan placed an emphasis on expanding e-Resources, funding, leading-edge learning technology, and greater librarian-student/librarian-faculty partnering in the design, implementation, and evaluation of services. We truly consider support of our four member Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) institutions to be a unique and commanding privilege. Contributing to their distinctive brands of excellence is at the heart of all we do. Today, the AUC Woodruff Library is a vibrant, ever-evolving academic center of the AUC and a neutral convening space for intellectual and social engagement. Our team is fully committed to achieving our vision and mission. Our performance expectation levels are collectively set, measured, and celebrated by the entire staff. Exceeding expectations is internally and endearingly referred to as stretching; we stretch with unyielding persistence. The academic success of our students and faculty requires much more of us than is written in any job description. Our librarians and archivists are professionally engaged in the important work of teaching, learning, scholarship, and preservation.
