MAN-U
(MANHOOD UNIVERSITY)
MENTOR PROGRAM
MAN-U is a community college minority
male mentoring program specifically geared
towards giving or minority male students
support and guidance while pursuing their
degree or certificate. In "Aspirations to
Achievement: Men of Color and Community
Colleges," the Center for Community
College Student Engagement reveals that
even though black and Latino students at
two-year institutions show more interest
than their white peers in obtaining an
associate degree or certificate, only 5 percent
actually accomplish that goal within three
years, compared to 32 percent for white
students. The mission of my program is
simple: to make sure that every male in my
program graduates from Mercer and/or
transfers to a four year institution. If you
are enrolled, or if you know of any minority
males that will be attending Mercer County
Community College or are currently enrolled
at the college, please email me:
or call me at (609) 570-3166. The time has
come for us to change the way the world sees
us as Black and Latino men. Positive,
Powerful and Educated is what we will
become.
