Black History Month: Texas College Trailblazers

To celebrate 2021's Black History Month, Texas College highlighted Black influential figures, or trailblazers, that are also Texas College Alumni. Throughout the month of February, the College spotlighted two notable individuals weekly on Texas College digital platforms. With 127 years of rich history and countless successful trailblazing alumni, this list is by no means exhaustive, nor is it aimed to be. Rather, this feature is a brief glimpse into some of the individuals that were impacted by Texas College and utilized their education to become meaningful influencers beyond the gates of the College. Compiled below for review are the trailblazers featured for 2021's Black History Month in order of appearance throughout February.
