The Black college football season is underway again! Homecoming games & classic rivalries showcase the best of the HBCU cultural experience. Alumni often travel thousands of miles to re-connect with the origins of their pride and their educational foundation. Of course, re-connecting with classmates and faculty, and becoming witness to the “young guns” who have taken over, is also reinforcement that the legacy continues!

There is no greater season for the marketing and promotion of HBCUs than the fall football season. There is magic in the air! Just the other day I received the October digital issue of BSTM (Black Sports The Magazine). This month’s issue is absolutely incredible! If you do not subscribe at present just go to: www.bstmllc.com. You will be able to download the issue and the subscription is free!

In addition to the HBCU coverage in October’s issue, be sure to check out the August issue as well. Melvin Wilson and staff have put together the most comprehensive review of Black College Football that I have ever seen. All of the schedules are there, as well as an overview of each conference and each college/university team. So go take a look because your travel plans may increase when you see all of what is going to be happening this year!

Our marketing efforts to place HBCU Today, the ultimate resource guide on HBCUs, into the hands of hundreds of thousands of youth, parents, teachers and counselors continues to gain momentum. The new digital versions of the book (CD book and instant download version) make it so easy and appealing for individuals and organizations to purchase 100 or more books as gifts or awards.

We are committed to telling the story behind our nation’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities to ensure that the knowledge about these great institutions is reaching those who can benefit most…our youth! Check it all out at: www.hbcutoday.net.
