Posted on February 15, 2010
More than 300 students from Clover Park, Harrison Prep and Lakes High Schools attended the Historically Black Colleges and Universities College Fair Feb. 3 at Clover Park.

- Bennett College, North Carolina
- Bethune-Cookman University, Florida

- Clark Atlanta University, Georgia
- Johnson C. Smith University North Carolina
- Lincoln University, Pennsylvania
