Miles College News

The First Hundred Years

Miles College: The First Hundred Years, (Arcadia Publishing) takes a photographic look @ the history of Miles College that’s blended with colorful narrative educating readers with little know facts, information, humor, and testimonials from Alumni about the rich history of this revered institution. This project is the end result of efforts by the Miles College Centennial History Committee, which includes several Miles College Professors: Drs. John Morgan, Gary Sprayberry, Robert Woodrum, and Dr. George T. French, Jr. Director of Institutional Planning & Development.

With over 200 vintage photographs, “The First Hundred Years” paints a vivid account delineating, rather clearly, the struggles facing the small Black College during the turn of the 20th century spawning the legacy that is now Miles College. Miles College: The First Hundred Years, now available in area bookstores, independent retailers, on-line bookstores, or through Arcadia Publishing @ www.arcadiapublishing.com or (888) 313-2665. www.miles.edu

BLACKSTUDENTS.COM OFFERS FREE OPPORTUNITIES TO AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDENTS

Long Beach, CA - There's a new tool available for African-American high

school and college students, and its extremely useful. Its called

BlackStudents.com, and it's a free online newsletter that keeps students

posted about new scholarships, internships, and entry-level jobs on a weekly

basis.

Currently, there are over one million Black high school and college students

in the United States. Many of these either will not go to college or will

overpay for college tuition because they are unaware of the opportunities

around them. Many African-American college graduates are unemployed or

underpaid -- again, because they are unaware of certain opportunities.

"Our goal is to make them aware," says Dante Lee, president of Diversity

City Media. "We launched BlackStudents.com because many African-American

students simply don't know what's out there. There are so many scholarships

and internships that they overlook."

Lee continues, "We feel that our site will play a key role in increased

college enrollment amongst Blacks, and in better jobs for Black college

graduates."

BlackStudents.com launched in mid-April of 2004 and already has 20,000

subscribers. Interested students are only required to provide their email

address, and from them on, they will receive free notices about new

opportunities.
