HBCUs arecredited with graduating 18% of all Black science, technology, engineering, and mathematics(STEM) baccalaureate students [7], in spite of making up only 3% of higher education'sinstitutions [6], having smaller operational budgets than most Historically White Institutions(HWIS) [5], and having markedly smaller enrollments [5]. Further HBCUs account for 21 of thetop 50 institutions who have Black students graduating with baccalaureate STEM degrees whosubsequently earn a doctorate in STEM [5]. Thirty percent of all Black STEM students whoreceive a PhD from any university are alumni of a HBCU STEM undergraduate program

itrequires no permanent staff, permanent physical space, or long-term programmatic plan. If aninstitution wishes to get ideas introduced to its faculty without putting together resources,planning local activities or exploring local experts, it can easily look to the national media andconferences in higher education to find the names of scholars who would likely be available forworkshops. Since these people are quite well known by major organizations, and have likelypublished in education literature, it is easy to assume that their message is unique; that it is basedon information that only they or a small set of experts have access to. This assumption is closelyrelated to other commonly held attitudes in engineering about where and in whom
