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. Roscoe
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. Cheers,
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. Roscoe
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. Oakwood College
Dr. Ingram is a graduate of Union Institute who holds an administrative position with Florida Memorial College. http://www.fmc.edu/administration/urbanaffairs/index.htm
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? Cheers,
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. _____________________ * Historic Black Colleges & Universities
Following up on Steve's followup: http://www.tui.edu/supportingunion/yourphilanthropyatwork/initiatives.asp A very good idea, I think. Cheers,
