| Moment 10: Coding and Creativity in Greater Houston |
Technology giant Apple teamed up with PVAMU to create a “Coding and Creativity Hub” within the Greater Houston and Waller County region.

The hub on “The Hill,” one of 10 around the country, is housed in Roy G. Perry College of Engineering’s Computer Science Department. It will help organize workshops and classes to teach students, faculty, staff, and residents programming coding language used to develop iOS apps. Apple has already delivered the necessary equipment to PVAMU to support the program.
 
Ten HBCUs, which have been working alongside Apple and Tennessee State University for the past year, will now become hubs to promote coding in their broader communities: Arkansas Baptist College, Central State University, Claflin University, Dillard University, Fisk University, Lawson State Community College, Morehouse College, Prairie View A&M University, Southern University at Shreveport, and Tougaloo College. Apple expects to double the number of HBCU partners by the end of this summer, expanding the network of schools offering coding, creativity, and career pathway opportunities.

Hopefully, they still will double the number. The article is from last summer which means it should have already happened. COVID related delays I suppose.
