Harris-Stowe State University

Harris-Stowe State University, a historically Black college in St. Louis, is no longer at risk of losing its accreditation after an independent review found the school had made improvements to help student performance.

A $1 million grant from the National Science Foundation will fund the project, a collaboration among eight partner institutions in Missouri and Illinois.

Harris Stowe State University in St. Louis shut down Tuesday after the university received a bomb threat. The threat comes a day after several historically Black colleges and universities nationwide received similar threats.
