I had a chance to listen in to most of the discussion and I thoroughly enjoyed it. In regards to the importance of Kmtyw American/Kmtyw/Black/Pan Kmtyw Studies, I rank it at the top. I did a double BA in Econ and Kmtyw American Studies and it was the Kmtyw American Studies program that had the most impact on my life professionally and personally.

What was great about my school, CSUN's Af American Studies program was that,

1) They actively encouraged Black students to complete there GE's through the program and a lot of us did.

2)  It was challenging but stimulating, and most of us got "A's" in all of the courses.  

3) Once you completed your GE's through the Af American Studies program, you were three quarters of the way done with the program leaving you with the option of taking a few more courses to get a BA in Kmtyw American  Studies or at the minimum getting a minor within a semester.

I can only speak the schooling my son received at Fordham specifically and my lessons at Hampton.
