A Guide for Future Historical Black College and University Leaders is a powerful guide, drawing on real‑world case studies of fiscal mismanagement, governance failures, accreditation crises, and lapses in ethical leadership of HBCUs. Through vivid narratives, sharp analysis, and actionable insights, Johnny D. Jones illuminates the structural and human challenges unique to HBCUs, while offering a roadmap toward transparency, accountability, and sustainable leadership.
From misallocation of emergency funds to corrupt board dynamics, from administrative secrecy to student‑driven advocacy, each chapter provides a detailed exploration of how, and why, things go wrong. Yet this book is ultimately a story of resilience and possibility. It champions innovation, principled decision‑making, community partnerships, and student‑centered governance as essential tools for leading HBCUs in the 21st century.
A must‑read for emerging college presidents, higher‑education practitioners, policy leaders, consultants, and students of educational leadership, A Guide for Future Historical Black College and University Leaders equips readers with the knowledge needed not only to avoid repeating past mistakes, but to reimagine what strong, ethical, and visionary leadership can look like within America’s most storied minority-serving institutions.
Johnny D. Jones is a distinguished educator with a diverse background spanning various roles in academia and administration. As CEO/Founder of The DELTA Project, Dr. Jones has held key leadership positions at multiple institutions, demonstrating a commitment to student success and community engagement throughout his career.
