Black College Tours During Spring Break

The easiest and most rewarding way to introduce a child to college is to actually get them on a college campus. Too often I hear from students that they have never left the confines of the city, let alone have spent any valuable time on a college campus. So, to start of slow, College Can B 4 Me is offering students in grades 8-12 the chance to leave the state AND visit 2 colleges on their choice of 2 one-day tours . Of course as an HBCU advocate, we are also going to experience the history and culture of OUR Black colleges. Tour A will visit the two oldest HBCUs, Lincoln and Cheyney University in Pennsylvania on Tuesday, April 19, 2011. On Wednesday, April 20, we will head south to the Richond/ Petersburg, VA area to visit Virginia Union University and Virginia State University. Each tour will offer the students the chance to tour the college, meet current students and administration and also to eat lunch in a school's dining facilty. each tour is $40 per student, which includes all meals, transportation and a gift bag.
