CROWN is a mentorship program geared toward the success of black men. The organization is Nicholls’ effort to create a structured environment to retain first-year Black male non-athletes and increase graduation rates. “By exercising empathy for their unique experiences and needs, the program seeks to acknowledge, challenge and connect participants to a supportive collegiate network. CROWN pairs freshman black men with mentors who help them to persist and to succeed during their first year. Winning is a thing of teamwork based on establishing healthy relationships among peers,” reads a statement from CROWN.
