In partnership with the Fort Bend Independent School District (FBISD), Mu Kappa Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated presents “It's Game Time Get Geared Up” – A College Fair and Career Readiness Event. The event is FREE and open to the public.
Students and parents can connect with representatives from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), learn more about opportunities at local community and trade schools, and participate in forums that will help students learn how to successfully navigate through college. Interactive workshops include The HBCU Experience, Sister2Sister, Brother2Brother, Parent2Parent, scholarships, STEAM Careers and more.
HBCUs create an ideal educational environment for students from diverse backgrounds. Spanning the last two centuries, HBCUs have a legacy of providing a strong cultural, spiritual and academic platform from which students can launch and fulfill their higher-education goals. For students in the greater Houston area, there are two HBCUs in the surrounding area, nine located within the state of Texas, and several HBCU Alumni Associations to help bring awareness to the educational opportunities available.
