BlackWomenConnect

Came across a social networking site for professional African American women to connect called BlackWomenConnect. This site is like LinkedIn and Facebook as black women can interact for business, networking, empowerment, entertainment, and jobs. And it's free!

A Community of Achievers - My 1st Post

My first post is a celebratory one. We tried to track down all 148 alumni in 8GA1 & 8GA2. We were able to find out where 124 of these alumni are.

Of the 124 alumni:

• 76 attend 4-year colleges
• 30 attend community, 2-year, or technical colleges
• 5 are working
• 5 are doing other things like internships, Year Up, etc
• 8 are still in high school

What this means is 85% of our 8GA1 & 8GA2 alumni surveyed, attend 2 or 4 year colleges. This is a very high percentage!
