For over 10 years, students from across California have experienced the premiere all-inclusive HBCU tour experience designed by Dr. Karen McCord.
Dr. McCord is an NAACP Educator and Teacher of the year Award winner, author and frequent speaker on Women's Empowerment, and Civil Rights matters ensuring students get a great deal more knowledge and mentoring during their tour. We work to ensure our students learn a great deal about their financial options, meet with key people at each campus and leave with a real feel for what their college experience could be and how to make it happen This is not your average Historically Black College and University tour! |
