10 HBCUs Doing Cool Things with Technology and Social Media
Oakwood University
As the winner of the 2013 Retool Your School program, Oakwood University in Huntsville, Alabama rallied its students, alumni, and supporters on social media to vote for the school to win a $50,000 grant from Home Depot. The small university (currently only 1,939 students!) is run by the Seventh-Day Adventist Church and beat out several other larger colleges when it came to social support.
