The African American Male Initiative (AAMI) is designed to address the low retention and graduation rate among African American males at Louisiana Tech University. This is not an organization but rather an initiative where there is no membership but rather a belonging.
Provide African American males at Louisiana Tech University a holistic educational
experience while increasing retention and graduation rates of participants in the
AAMI to a pint where they exceed the rates of the general student population. It is
the goal of the AAMI to gain 100 percent participation from all African American males
or underrepresented males who are not athletes from each freshman class cohort.
