capitalize on 的意思是“加惠于......”,“使 ......受益”(to turn something to one's advantage; benefit)。capitalizing 的逻辑主语是 A consortium。
因为词义不合适,首先排除了 B(连词 while 多余)、C(介词 through 多余,而且 such schools’ and African nations’这种表达很奇怪) 和 E(介词 in 用在这里使句子不知所云)。
D:从句主语不清(A consortium,Black colleges,还是 United States?),造成歧义;如果换成 capitalizes 就说得过去了。

答案 A 最好,但句子中的 such school’是打字时掉了一个 s 还是原来如此?应该是 such schools’。
