Black Ph. D./ Ed.D.

Marnell Love, CPA Ed.D., Dual Careers: Academia and Corporate America. Subscribe to the magazine to read more about the aforementioned Black doctorates.

What a refreshing glimpse into the lives of African Americans who are not only “getting by,” but who are making a significant impact in all walks of life. This publication is inspirational and motivational and should be available to African American young people as early as elementary school level! Middle schools, high schools, and yes, colleges and universities, should subscribe to this publication, as well. Just think of the impact such a publication could have on the self-esteem of young brothers and sisters for whom positive role models are few to non-existent. I certainly don't plan to let another academic year go by without having a copy prominently displayed in my office. The persons in your magazine are positive proof that there are no academic aspirations that are "off limits" to African Americans. We can do and become anything we set our minds to. It is also wonderful to see further evidence of what I've been saying for many, many years--our Historically Black Colleges and Universities, many times with limited resources and fighting an uphill battle with negative propaganda, do an outstanding job of preparing its students to compete and excel in advanced degree programs. read more
