It sounds like the Sub-prime loan debacle all over again.
I’m shocked so shocked by this
sarcasm off
Must be that White privilege thing I keep hearing about, no?
Stealth reparations.
Isn’t it possible that historically black colleges and universities need to adapt or go out of business?
Their reason for being no longer exists. Blacks are not being kept out of other colleges anymore.
The Negro baseball leagues went out of business within a few years of Jackie Robinson breaking the color line in baseball. Their reason for being no longer existed. The world had changed. Perhaps the same reasoning should apply to these colleges. If they can’t run themselves properly, lose accreditation, etc. then maybe they should no longer exist.
Flame away, I know what I said is controversial, and would be called racist by the liberals. But I would love to know, how do you justify these colleges when blacks are not being discriminated against in attending any other college of their choice.
These facts are racist!
wealth redistribution
This is rasis.......
Wealth redistribution.
HRBC’s are a weird mix. You have some truly excellent schools, like Tuskegee, and you have a lot of schools best known for their “noncompetitive admissions.” (I went to high school with a guy who scored a combined 720 on his SAT (out of 1600, this was a while ago), and had a 1.9 GPA, and was accepted to an HRBC in a neighboring state). From what I’ve read and seen, there doesn’t seem to be a lot of in between, “average” colleges and universities. It seems (again, from what I’ve seen) very feast or famine.
As for what to do about it...I don’t think anyone is served by funding a school that does not or can not meet basic academic standards. Least of all for the students who attend there. Cranking out unprepared graduates at the university level solves no more problems than it does at the high school level, and creates just as many (though HRBC’s are not the only schools guilty of this practice.)
The counter-argument would be that African-Americans, etc. come from disadvantaged backgrounds/bad schools/etc. My counter to the counter is, enroll in a local junior or community college for a year or two. You’ll get the opportunity to catch up on the basics and prep yourself for a four year degree at a school that can offer you something for your future in terms of a career.

One of the reasons HBCUs still exsists today is because they provide a ‘nurturing environment’ that white schools don’t. I think that’s BS...I had one student tell me half-jokingly that he should have gone to a white school then he could have used the race card if they treated him bad. It was like a 3rd world dictatorship every administrator out for their own piece of the pie.
Funding black racism dressed up as separate and equal education is politically correct.
The federal government would never provide federally guaranteed public loans to Historically White Colleges And Universities.
On Uncle Sam’s Higher Education Animal Farm, some animals are more equal than others.
Neighbor of mine has a coworker who got his degree decades ago from a HBCU. His one goal in life was to make sure his kids never had to go there. He put them all through name big schools.
Truth is the new pornography.
Howard University receives a $200 million appropriation from Congress ever year and it’s still financially and organizationally troubled.

I thought segregation was over????
Oh, that is right. You can still segregate if you are nigra and want to.
Now if you are the white boogey man you cannot segregate into white schools, white neighborhoods, white churches, white clubs, white organizations, etc.
But you be a nigra and you can have all the single race clubs you want......
I think I am getting the handle on being whitey and getting more pissed.
We are joining South Africa and Rhodesia once vibrant countries, who were destroyed from within by lib/commie socialists.
One simple solution: have the college co-sign the loan. If the student comes out of the school unable to get a job which would allow him to pay off the loan, the college has to give back the tuition money.
