Oakland considers first HBCU in California
A volunteer task force backed by Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee is exploring the development of a Historically Black College or University (HBCU) in Oakland to support Black students and help retain Black residents. The initiative aims to create a campus that offers culturally relevant education and addresses the region’s "brain drain" by providing local opportunities for students to pursue higher education closer to home. Early feasibility studies focus on potential campus models, sites, and key industries such as technology and life sciences, with decisions expected in the coming months.
