Clarnetta Madden’s original objective was to obtain her Associate Degree (AA-T) and transfer to a California State University for the fall 2015 semester. However, in March, her professor at Norco College, Raul Madrid, informed the class about a new Historically Black College and University (HBCU) Guarantee Transfer Program for California Community College students. As a fulltime college student and native of California, Clarnetta had an interest in transferring to HBCUs because of their rich histories and supportive environments.
