Perspectives: A2MEND Addressing Issues Facing Black Males in Higher Education

by Dr. Mark Robinson , May 8, 2008

Categories:

The Athletic Division remains committed to A2MEND’s ideal that the various groups effecting Black male success in higher education must work collaboratively on student athlete projects in order to ensure that students receive the educational services and programs necessary for success in academics, athletics and beyond.

Future of A2MEND

The A2MEND organization is currently preparing for presentations and workshops on the topics of Black male student success; as well as student athlete achievement through the Athletic Division. The group is working tirelessly to expand their membership and sponsorship base, and is excited about the opportunity to provide scholarships and mentorships as the organization grows.
