FAMU President Larry Robinson was one of six HBCU presidents to visit Tel Aviv earlier this month for an inaugural HBCU leaders’ delegation to Israel.
The nine-day trip was the outgrowth of a partnership made this spring between the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, an organization representing public HBCUs, and the American Jewish Committee (AJC), a Jewish advocacy organization.
The trip was a “capacity-building” mission to experience a country known for its technological innovation and “to find out what the opportunities were for HBCUs to partner with Israeli institutions for student exchanges, faculty exchanges and joint research opportunities.”
