CALGARY Canada’s first and only online school dedicated to the teaching of students with diagnosed learning disabilities or ADHD is set to open in the fall. “We are building a school in the clouds,” said John Wolf, principal at Rundle Studio, which is starting with Grades 7 and 8 and a limited intake of 28 students. We ve been talking about ways to branch out and so is that creating schools elsewhere, said Wolf. That just takes time and capital, so we ve been looking for this probably about two years now and with COVID it was just a little bit of a boost.
After digging through innumerable manuscripts, podcasts and blogs, I learned that Black folks were very much involved in the construction and operation of our most prestigious colleges from the very beginning. Although most college bylaws, and state constitutions prohibited African Americans from formally attending our oldest institutions as pupils, they played integral roles in other ways.
Among them were construction and engineering technicians, brick masons, coppersmiths, stevedores, cooks/chefs, laborers and security personnel.
Here are a few ivy league, and other colleges that were benefactors of the sweat equity of Black people:
