It is my great privilege and honor today to be a part of a Special Order on the 1-year anniversary of the bipartisan HBCU Caucus. For those who are listening or who are watching, let me make sure you understand that HBCU stands for Historically Black Colleges and Universities. That is what we will be talking about today. I am the co-chair of this caucus, along with a Member of this body who came up with this idea and who has spearheaded this effort from the very beginning--she is the spirit behind it--Congresswoman Alma Adams from the great State of North Carolina. I yield to Congresswoman Adams so that she may speak to this House and to the Nation about the importance of this topic and about the importance of HBCUs to the United States of America.
