Tuskegee University Awarded Historic $16 Million Dollar Grant [VIDEO]

Source: WSFA 12 News

Tuskegee University receives it’s largest competitive five-year grant award in school history. The National Science Foundation awarded about $16 million dollars for several projects, some that will benefit public schools in the Black Belt.

“It’s not just because we are an HBCU, it’s because we are doing cutting edge technology in this area”
— Dr. Shaik Jeelani, Tuskegee University Vice President for research and sponsored programs

Dr. Jeelani says $10 million dollars of the historic grant will go to middle schoolers across the Black Belt region.

“This is a unique example in the whole country where we’re linking the researchers to the K-12 community,” Dr. Jeelani said.

The math and science partnership should get underway within a month. Tuskegee Institute science teacher Belinda Hart says she couldn’t wait to tell her middle school students the news.

    … Very ipssemrive personality and background. I did knew about him, but more for the news we have here, the extravagant ones, as he bought a new airplane, how is it going to fe furnished… And I see that he's not only just another billionaire but also concerned on people's well being.The question is, if royal saudies are so mixed, and have no problems with that, why is not allowed for the rest to do so? Strange contradiction!And by the way, he resembles a lot D. M-y, only that he's darker than him and of course is not rich neither a prince :o)September 2, 2009 12:23 AM
