One of only four HSI members of the Association of American Universities, the campus is aiming to transform the academic landscape and offer meaningful change.
Their first project will study, evaluate and refine a national model of best practices to promote national criminal justice reform and reduce mass incarceration.
The new center seeks not only to address the root causes of climate change, but also the broad range of associated social, racial and environmental injustices.
The new degree will not only enhance academic offerings but will foster collaborative study regarding the current experiences and histories of people of African descent.
