In our inaugural installment of our new series "HBCU 101," Due South co-host Leoneda Inge chats with the 18th president of Shaw University, Dr. Paulette Dillard about the college's history and future.
Then NPR's Ayesha Rascoe discusses her new anthology, HBCU Made, which includes an essay Leoneda wrote.
And Dr. Shauntae Brown-White, Rev. Dr. Harry L. White, Jr. and their daughter Kai stop by the studio to chat about Kai's college admissions process. With acceptance letters from both PWIs (predominantly white institution) and HBCUs, she weighs her many options.
