Lincoln University, an historically black university in southern Chester County, announced it will open a campus in Coatesville.
The expansion, the university said, was approved by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.Lincoln will begin offering courses in business in the fall at the new site, orignally known as the Gordon Education Center, 351 Kersey St.
To begin, courses will be offered during the evenings and weekends and eventually expand as enrollment grows to more traditional and accelerated undergraduate and graduate degree programs in business, the university said.

Why would they....oh.— BlueberryLetter23- So, do the writers and editors of this paper also know of historically white universities?
Maybe it is way past time to still be calling these few black universities, "historically black?"
How about calling it, Lincoln University!— GAC - GAC - pretty much EVERY university is a "historically white" university, in that that's the only population that most schools admitted. The lack of a any historical context that some people continue to possess still never ceases to amaze me.— P4illi3s
