Connecting Minority Communities Pilot Program

Prairie View A&M University

Prairie View A&M University (PVAMU)’s Air Panther NextGen Network Project will mitigate the digital divide at PVAMU and its designated anchor communities in two tiers. The first tier consists of internal-facing focus activities that will impact PVAMU’s infrastructure relating to (a) broadband, (b) technology-mediated classroom connectivity, and (c) educational initiatives. The second tier will be community-centric and will aim to produce responsible digital citizens and a diverse technology-literate workforce with outcomes that support a robust economy through digital education training and distribution of equipment.
