Riassunto

Mychal Wynn, in HBCU Healthcare Pathways provides insight into “The science behind HBCU success.” While only enrolling 9 percent of Black undergraduate students in the U.S., HBCUs produce:

• 29.9 percent of Blacks in agriculture
• 27.8 percent of Blacks in the physical sciences
• 25.5 percent of Blacks in mathematics
• 24.7 percent of Blacks in biological sciences
• 15.7 percent of Blacks who earn science and engineering doctorates

Unlike institutions where top students of color and women are made feel less than, not good enough, or not as good as their affluent or private school classmates, HBCUs are intentional in:

• Affirming the scholarship of Black people
• Creating a culture where the philosophy is to enable students to succeed, not weed them out
• Creating an institutional belief system that “it takes a village” where everyone on campus from the cafeteria to the Office of the President shares the mission and is invested in student success
• Cultivating a love of science in students who may have hated science in high school
• Cultivating a “can do” attitude in achieving mastery in math and science

Mychal Wynn, in HBCU Healthcare Pathways does not stop at making the argument as to why HBCUs may be the best fit, but provides strategies for pursuing the fastest growing healthcare occupations, and:

• Provides a comprehensive listing of HBCU partnerships with chiropractic, dental, medical, nursing, optometry, pharmacy, physical therapy, podiatry, and veterinary schools—many of which provide guaranteed admission.
• Provides occupational and salary data for over 80 healthcare careers, alternative career pathways, and certifications.
• Provides sample college curriculum for each healthcare pathway.
• Provides a comprehensive listing of licensing boards and professional organizations for each pathway.
• Lists the 17 professional competencies that you can begin developing to prepare for a healthcare career or for applying to medical school.
• Identifies highly paying healthcare careers that do not require attending medical school.

Mychal Wynn, in HBCU Healthcare Pathways sets forth the facts that are indisputable:

• 8 HBCUs, that produce more Black students who are awarded PhDs than Harvard University (ranked #26), Cornell University (ranked #29), and Stanford University (ranked #29).
• Howard University (116) is the top producer of Blacks who are accepted into medical school.
• Xavier University of Louisiana (94) is the #3 producer of Blacks who are accepted into medical school.
• Spelman College, the #20 top producer of Blacks who are accepted into medical school is tied with Harvard University (43).
