Material Detail

This report—HBCUs Transforming Generations: Social Mobility Outcomes for HBCU Alumni—offers an in-depth review of the Move into Middle Class+ mobility rate and its efficiency as a measure of social mobility for Black students at HBCUs. The report includes an overview of the access, success and mobility rates at HBCUs. Additionally, it offers an equity-centered approach to understanding higher education outcomes for underserved students. It underscores that when such an approach to research is taken a clearer picture may be observed of the sheer magnitude of the outcomes produced by HBCUs. This is especially the case as it relates to access to higher education and economic mobility. While we subscribe whole-heartedly to the belief that the above-mentioned rates capture only a singular aspect of institutional success, it is critical to advance and prioritize methods for measuring outcomes that are both comprehensive and equity-informed.
