Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact a historically white institution (HWI) has on the experiences of their Black men college students who leave prior to obtaining their bachelor's degree. Using Wood & Palmer's (2015) Context, Actions, and Outcomes (CAO) Model of Institutional Responsibility, Venzant Chambers et al. (2014) Racial Opportunity Cost (ROC), and Bush & Bush's (2013b) African American Male Theory (AAMT) as conceptual frameworks this phenomenological qualitative study presents the experience of Black men who departed from the institution. In this study, I sought to examine the experience of Black men who leave a HWI and how the institution interacted with them before leaving. Through data gathered from individual interviews, nine sub-themes emerged, summarized into two themes. The themes that contributed to the students' decision to leave were the institution's campus climate & institutional culture and the institution's impact on the student's self-perception and identity influence. This study suggests that HWI assess their impact as major contributing factors to the departure of their Black men college students from those institutions.
