    I'm curious about teaching opportunities at historically black colleges/universities. Does anyone know of any faculty with DL degrees?

    I've checked out the faculty section at a number of web sites. Unfortunately, only names and degrees were mentioned. Nothing about where they earned them.

    This isn't directly relevant to your question, but I remember Howard University being among the first to set up a fully online MBA focusing on e-commerce.

    Howard's school of law also has some type of partnership/exchange student program with Univ. of Western Cape. I find that a number of black US schools are forming partnerships with SA schools.

    To date, however, I haven't seen any faculty members with degrees from the SA schools.

    I know of one historically black school where a couple professors have DL doctorates. It's my alma mater, Oakwood College. But that is a school owned by the Seventh-day Adventists and they tend to hire Seventh-day Adventist faculty.

    One person in their Social Work department is completing a Ph.D. at Walden (Human Services). Anyway, good luck in the search and please let us know what you find.

    Another Union grad, Dr. Syrulwa L. Somah, is an assistant professor at North Carolina A&T.
    Dr. Somah's faculty listing can be found here.

    Now that I think of it, I remember seeing some material on a Union Institute HBCU initiative of some kind back when I was considering their program circa 1999; anyone know more about this?

    Following up on Tm's reply, Union has had an HBCU* Initiative for several years. You can probably surf to info on their website at http://www.tui.edu.
