HBCUs Among the Top US Colleges that Rank for Academic Stewardship

April 12, 2022 by HBCU Staff Reports

HBCU students

In response to Malcolm Gladwell’s investigation of possible bias against schools that work hard to create opportunities for students who face financial challenges, AcademicInfluence.com released its rankings for colleges & universities that excel in Academic Stewardship. While Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCUs) have until now been unfairly neglected or downgraded in the most prominent college rankings, Academic Influence found that HBCUs ranked among the top of schools that effectively manage their financial and human resources to gain the influence that makes them academically excellent.

“The upshot is that many of the schools that rank highly in academic stewardship are HBCUs as well as those in smaller towns and rural areas, which might otherwise lead some people to overlook them in favor of so-called ‘elite’ schools…But we show why the smart use of an institution’s resources through committed investment in students who need more from their school is a better measure of excellence. This is why we want to bring attention to academic stewardship and the schools that exemplify this virtue.”

Dr. Jed Macosko, Academic Director of AcademicInfluence.com and Wake Forest University Professor of Physics
