There are a number of historically black colleges in the south. Among the oldest are what was originally called Hampton Institute in Hampton, Virginia; Fisk University in Nashville TN; Philander Smith College in Little Rock, AR; and Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. Many sources list Wilberforce College in Ohio as the oldest African-American institution of higher education (1856), but you asked about the south, and Wilberforce is in the midwest.
