This project is intended to collect the digital bibliography for my final paper in Peter Decherney's Internet Policy and Culture class. The paper will focus on the disparity in technological resources between Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and their more affluent, traditionally white-majority counterparts. In addition to examining this disparity, the paper will examine what is being done to bridge this gap, including administrative actions, public advocacy, and government intervention. The paper will take a particular interest in the pending renewal and evolution of the Higher Education Act, first passed in 1965, whose recently proposed amendments aim to reduce this electronic disparity. The topic of the paper is "Bridging The Digital Divide in Higher Education."
