I don't know who built the first black college but, Saint Leo University boasts as being the first college in the U.S. to have a black student enroll in 1918. But he was later expelled for stealing the wagon wheels off the Deans buggy.

Clearly somebody with better grammar skill than you. It should be Who built the first black college. Maybe you pay closer attention in school.
