Executive Order 13779: White House Initiative to Promote Excellence and Innovation at Historically Black Colleges and Universities was a presidential executive order issued by President Donald Trump (R) in February 2017 that reestablished the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and the President's Board of Advisors on HBCUs.[1]

President Joe Biden (D) on September 3, 2021, revoked and replaced E.O. 13779 with E.O. 14041.

Background

President Donald Trump (R) issued Executive Order 13779, titled "White House Initiative to Promote Excellence and Innovation at Historically Black Colleges and Universities," on February 28, 2017. The order is part of a series of executive orders issued by each presidential administration since President Jimmy Carter (D) that continue White House initiatives aiming to support HBCUs. E.O. 13779 revoked and replaced President Barack Obama's (D) E.O. 13532 and was superseded by President Joe Biden's (D) E.O. 14041.[1]

Executive orders on HBCUs

President Jimmy Carter (D) first established the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities through Executive Order 12232, issued on August 8, 1980. Carter's order directed the secretary of education to "implement a Federal initiative designed to achieve a significant increase in the participation by historically Black colleges and universities in Federally sponsored programs.”[2] President Ronald Reagan (R) re-established the initiative in 1981 through Executive Order 12320.[2]

When President George H.W. Bush (R) re-established the initiative in 1989 via Executive Order 12677, he also created the President's Board of Advisors on Historically Black Colleges to advise the secretary of education on "the annual development of a Federal program designed to achieve an increase in the participation by historically Black colleges and universities in federally sponsored programs" and on "how to increase the private sector role in strengthening historically Black colleges and universities," according to the order. Executive Order 12876, issued by President Bill Clinton (D) in 1993, re-established both the White House initiative and the board of advisors.[2]

President George W. Bush (R) re-established the board of advisors through Executive Order 13256, titled "President's Board of Advisors on Historically Black Colleges and Universities," on February 12, 2022.

President Barack Obama (D) in February 2010 issued Executive Order 13532 and reestablished the White House Initiative on HBCUs and the President's Board of Advisors on HBCUs with the goal of increasing opportunities for HBCUs to participate in federal programs.[2]

Provisions

Policy

Section 1 of E.O. 13799 states that the executive order aims to "advance America's full human potential; foster more and better opportunities in higher education; strengthen the capacity of HBCUs to provide the highest-quality education; provide equitable opportunities for HBCUs to participate in Federal programs; and increase the number of college-educated Americans who feel empowered and able to advance the common good at home and abroad."[1]

White House Initiative on HBCUs

Section 2 of E.O. 13799 reestablished the White House Initiative on HBCUs. The order directed the initiative to "work with agencies, private-sector employers, educational associations, philanthropic organizations, and other partners to increase the capacity of HBCUs to provide the highest-quality education to an increasing number of students." The order also sought to increase partnerships between HBCUs and the private sector—including private foundations—as well as the federal government. The order directed an interagency working group to produce federal agency plans for working with HBCUs.[1]

President's Board of Advisors on HBCUs

Section 3 of E.O. 13779 reestablished the President's Board of Advisors on HBCUs. It stated that the board shall not consist of more than 25 members appointed by the president and that the board shall "advise the President, through the Initiative, on all matters pertaining to strengthening the educational capacity of HBCUs."[1]

Aftermath

President Joe Biden (D) issued Executive Order 14041, "Advancing Educational Equity, Excellence, and Economic Opportunity through Historically Black Colleges and Universities," on September 3, 2021, which revoked and superseded E.O. 13779.[3]
