博彩平台正在为新成立的黑人荣誉学院招收首届学生，这是全国第一所黑人荣誉学院。

该学院是专门为所有对黑人历史、生活和文化感兴趣的学生设计的。 该校将于2024年秋季开始招收学生。

The University’s announcement of the college’s creation coincides with Black History Month, which the University is celebrating throughout February. One of the month’s key events is Super Sunday, on Feb. 25. 当天，包括校长卢克·伍德（Luke Wood）在内的校园领导将访问萨克拉门托地区以黑人为主的教堂，颂扬高等教育的价值，并鼓励年轻人进入萨克州立大学。

In creating the Black Honors College, 囊状态 is taking initiative to support the CSU’s efforts 促进黑人学生的成功. 一个关键目标是提高黑人毕业率，提高黑人学生的入学率和保留率。

大学将在下午5点的社区会议上向公众提供有关学院的详细信息。 2月19日，图书馆11室。

萨克州立大学招收的黑人和非裔美国学生比科罗拉多州立大学系统中的任何一所大学都多，伍德说，萨克州立大学应该在确保他们在大学及以后取得成功方面发挥带头作用。

“While we have the highest population of Black students, we are in the bottom quartile for success, and have been for many years,” and the Black Honors College will seek to reverse that trend, he said.

该学院将为所有种族、文化和专业的优秀学生提供以黑人和非裔美国人经历为重点的综合课程。

“We already have some cultural communities, like the MLK Center and the DEGREES Project, but this will go much further. I think students who hear about this will be very hopeful and will want to join in.” -- Imani Harper, 囊状态 Sociology student

它将以专门的通识教育课程为特色，班级规模较小，教职员工在为黑人和非裔美国学生服务方面取得了成功。

“The Black Honors College is designed to create a pathway for our Black students at 萨克拉门托 State that has never existed, to uplift our scholars, and to help them persist to graduation,” said Boatamo “Ati” Mosupyoe, the college’s dean of students and chief academic officer. Ruth Williams, previously associate director of 囊状态’s DEGREES Project, is staff director.

“There will be an intentional focus on authentic mentorship to adjust students to the rigors of college, paid internship opportunities to give students tangible experience, and elite co-curricular education to enhance their overall college experience,” Mosupyoe said.

萨克州立大学商学院的学生约翰·凯里三世说，他相信学院将帮助黑人学生在攻读学位的过程中建立信心和社区。

“It’s a great idea to offer a program where people who look like me can learn together in the same space,” Carey said. “It will bring us together as a group. It will build a sense of community, and I think that will help us academically as well.”

Imani Harper, a Sociology student, said smaller classes, a focus on Black culture and history, and specially curated courses are among the college’s significant attractions.

“I’m proud that 囊状态 is doing this,” she said. “We already have some cultural communities, like the MLK Center and the DEGREES Project, but this will go much further. I think students who hear about this will be very hopeful and will want to join in.”

Mosupyoe说，大学的目标是帮助在全国建立黑人荣誉学院。

该学院将设在11号图书馆，目前正在接受秋季入学申请。 准学生的平均绩点必须在3.5以上。 Students interested in learning more about the Black Honors College can 给学院发邮件.
