Three 2026 area college graduates are preparing to make their mark in the technology industry. They are part of the CodeHouse Scholars Initiative. They’re the second class to complete the program, and so far, the largest of 43 students.
According to Code House’s website, the initiative invests in students attending historically Black colleges and universities who have an interest in tech careers. The initiative provides its scholars with exposure, hands-on experience, mentorship and a $20,000 scholarship over the course of their four-year undergraduate tenure.
On Tuesday’s edition of “Closer Look,” host Rose Scott talked with Brooklynne Hand, a graduating senior at Clark Atlanta University majoring in political science and government; Journei Ferguson, a graduating senior at Spelman College majoring in computer science; and Troy Boxton Jr., a graduating senior at Morehouse College majoring in computer science.
