2019 HBCU Influencers

Dr. Everod Coleman has had a distinguished career as a dentist and professor at the University of Pennsylvania for more than 40 years. He is a proud graduate of Howard and Harvard Universities. And, he credits his success with the preparation he received at Howard, as a member of the Class of 1969.

This year at Howard's 50-year class reunion, the Class of 1969 presented a $1.1 million gift to their beloved alma mater.

In remarks, Dr. Coleman told his fellow alumni, β€œIt is imperative that we as alumni continue this tradition by giving back, not just on your five year reunion, but every year.”

Therefore, FUNTIMES Magazine salutes Howard class of 69’ and also Dr. Coleman as an outstanding HBCU Influencer along with other area HBCU graduates who proudly support their alma maters and give praise to them not only for the academic preparation they received but also for the nurturing and support HBCUs have provided to them.
