Hillsborough Community College hosted the Black, Brown and College Bound Summit last month at the Renaissance Hotel. The theme for the conference was “Courageous Conversations: Taking it to the Next Level with African American and Latino Males.” The summit is designed to bring together national experts and practitioners to discuss programs and strategies to increase the academic achievement of underrepresented males. Among those in attendance were, from left: Dr. Joan Holmes, Tim King, Esquire, guest speaker and founder of an all-male school with 99% of the grads attending college; Dr. Ken Ray, Jr., and Dr. Sylvia Marion Carley.
