In this continuation of our Black in White Spaces series: HBCU v. PWI discussion, our panelists who are adult students at the university and graduate level as well as working professionals share their different experiences at HBCUs and PWIs. Some of the topics discussed were: 

  • what supports would help black and other students of color thrive at PWIs
  • cultural advantages of being the majority at an HBCU where they don't have to navigate spaces where they are the minority
  • uncomfortable moments where their self-awareness of their racial and cultural identities was heightened within their PWI spaces
  • feeling like they have to be the cultural ambassadors at their PWIs, and many other topics.
