Black Colleges Receive Presidential Volunteerism Award
A multitude of historically black colleges and universities have been named to the prestigious President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll, an award presented to colleges and universities demonstrating commitment and excellence to volunteerism and service learning initiatives.
The President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll, launched in 2006, annually recognizes institutions of higher education for their commitment to and achievement in community service. The President’s Honor Roll increases the public’s awareness of the contributions that colleges and their students make to local communities and the nation as a whole.

Oh that’s right, they don’t care about service, all they care about is money and the misuse of it.
