� utter Sugar Sweet potatoes, flour and eggs. For most of us,
they're only ingredients. But for Mary Mcleod Bethune, who
founded Bethune-Cookman college by selling sweet potato pies,
these corrunon staples were the makings of a great college-sand
a great future-for Black people.
Wonowing Mary Bethune's redpe for success, Black colleges and
universities are making the most of the talent, intelligence and
detennination of thousands of students. In this unique environ­
ment. students are encouraged to fully express an of their abilities.
As scholars. Athletes. Musicians. Leaders. At Black colleges, there
is no ceiling on achievement; no goal is too far-fetched.
I A Ind from the graduate classroom to the corporate conference
room, that spirit of resourcefulness and achievement is a lasting
benefrt to the graduates of Black colleges and those who live and
work with them. Is it any wonder that, though they enroll only
16% of Black college students, Black colleges produce 37% of
all Black college graduates?
W hen you're considering colleges, why not consider the ones that
gave us Martin Luther King, Jt, Thurgood Marshall and Andrew
'bung? If you're out to make something spedal of your life, Black
colleges can reaDy get you cooking.
