I live in Canada. My recommendation is that you have to emphasize on your HBCUs because in “White” colleges we are not assessed objectively and they can fail us to prevent us to get our PhDs and so on. I have proof to support what I am saying. One big example that I can give is Philip Emeagwali, the father of the Internet: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Emeagwali#Court_case_and_the_denial_of_degree. He was prevented to get his PhD in the University of Michigan. The author of this article, Dr. Watkins is another proof. It is not normal that he was the only brother in the country who got his PhD in finance at his epoch. The favorite sport of many Whites is to fail us since the first grade. This is why very few of us are in fields where it is really possible to make serious money such as physicians, actuaries and so on.
