Clark Atlanta University, and higher education stakeholders, announced the launch of the HBCU Executive Leadership Institute (ELI) at CAU.
The groundbreaking initiative will serve as an incubator for recruiting and developing the future presidents of over 100 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
“HBCUs have a clear value proposition and continue to be the standard-bearers of Black excellence across every sector of business and society,” said Dr. George T. French Jr., president of Clark Atlanta University. “Through ELI, we are committed to identifying dynamic leaders who can advance the growth and sustainability of our institutions of higher learning.”
“We invite leaders of industry – from Silicon Valley and Wall Street to non-profits, government, higher education and the creative class – to submit their applications and be a part of history.”
The first program of its kind, ELI will help preserve and strengthen HBCUs as a hub for education, opportunity and uplift in the Black community.
