Black History Month
February is Black History Month across the country and we at the University of Florida College of Design, Construction and Planning join in the celebration. While we do not just tell stories of the Black experience at UF only in February, we do believe it is a great time to reflect on all that has been accomplished previously.
We celebrate Black History Month by looking back at articles and social media posts showcasing the many ways our Black alumni, faculty and students shape the world we live in on a daily basis.
