In the late 19th century, colleges for Black students were started in box cars (Atlanta University) and church basements (Spelman College). Mary McLeod Bethune, one of the nation’s foremost Black educators, opened a college in 1904 with $1.50 and 5 students. Today, there are 101 historically Black colleges and universities in the United States, who can count among their graduates such luminaries as W. E. B. Du Bois (Fisk University), Thurgood Marshall (Lincoln University and Howard University), Toni Morrison (Howard University), and Martin Luther King, Jr. (Morehouse College).
