The HBCU Oratorical Challenge partners with faculty and academic leaders to strengthen communication programs and expand student opportunity nationwide. Nominate a student, bring the program to your campus, or request the Faculty Guide.
Recommend exceptional communicators for the competition pathway and the HBCU Speaks Program. Faculty-nominated scholars receive an accelerated pathway and enhanced mentorship.
Bring the program to your campus. Partners recruit students and help with scheduling — we provide the instruction, technology, and coordination. Institutions can also sponsor blocks of Scholars Track seats for their students.
A resource for academic partners — how the competition pathway and the HBCU Speaks Program work, what nomination involves, and how your department can participate. We'll email it to you directly.
