The Lurie College of Education at San José State University is launching the Male Educators of Color Initiative (MECI), recognizing the powerful impact that a more diverse teacher workforce can have on students academic achievement and overall well-being. Fellows in the MECI receive scholarships for tuition and fees, housing support, as well as professional and personal mentorship throughout their time in the credential program. This solid foundation layers on additional housing supports and professional learning opportunities as educators launch their careers in the hopes that they will be long-term, dedicated teachers to students in East Side San José.

Please note that the Male Educators of Color Initiative is open to all SJSU teacher credential candidates committed to combating the systemic and interpersonal barriers that disproportionately impede and discourage men of color from entering the teaching profession. The MECI does not consider race, color, national origin, sex, or any other protected status for candidates seeking to participate in MECI programs and activities.
