Anyone interested the school problems faced by black boys should tap into this website, Success For Black Boys.
And, if you need to take a look at the other end of the pipeline, the paucity of black males graduating from college, see this article about the University of Texas.

Based on these two articles do others think that the problem is the 10% rules (must be in the top 10% of your class to attend UT)?
HBCUs seem to provide a solution– I am curious if any research is being done on the 1.4 - 1.6% pay increase for the African American graduating from HBCUs… sounds like good networking to me.
Any thoughts?
