Introduction to the black side.............

For a while I have been concerned that the black side of life and design here in the city of boston gets overlooked. In a city that is 51% minority with a Black Governor, why do we have to work so hard to know about all the exciting things that are happening in the city? Therefore the goal of this blog is to pass along information about events, activities, job opportunities and restaurant reviews from a minority perspective. The Black side or hidden side of life and design here in Boston is the scope of what you will find in the posts. And some occasional commentary will also make its way to the web. Enjoy!

SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY HAS 10 FULL RIDES FOR AFRICAN AMERICAN MEN AND WOMEN
Syracuse University has 10 Full Rides for African American Men and Women
Interested in Studying Architecture. Mark Robbins, Dean of Syracuse
University's School of Architecture is desperately seeking young men and
women of color interested in pursuing a five year professional degree in
Architecture. He says he's deeply committed to bringing diversity to his
field and has scholarship money set aside to fully cover education
costs for 10 students. He says that Hispanic enrollment in the school has
increased substantially, but it's been harder to attract African Americans.
Syracuse University 's School of Architecture has a great
reputation and this seems like a terrific opportunity, so please pass this
on to everyone you know.
