      • As the number one (public) HBCU, I think it's always imperative that we always look for new mechanisms to reach our constituents.  We do a great job with our campus visits, our social media, but moving to the Metaverse is something no one has done, and we pride ourselves on being innovators and strategists for the new generation of students.
