HFC’s Black Male and QUEENS Focus Group (BMQFG) will host a Historically Black College and University (HBCU) virtual tour on Wednesday, Jan. 19, from noon to 2:00 p.m. via Zoom.

“In keeping with our efforts to assist students after they have successfully graduated from HFC, the BMQFG continues to provide support during the transfer process – and long after,” said HFC sociology professor and BMQFG faculty advisor Dr. Kalvin DaRonne Harvell. "The HBCU virtual tour is another example of the long-term commitment of the BMQFG to the success of our students. The best decision a student can make is to come to HFC, join the BMQFG, graduate, and allow us to assist you to and through the next phase(s) of your educational journey. The BMQFG has a holistic approach to college success. We help you start planning for your doctorate before you have even earned your first college credit."
