Um, I don't know what your point is.

-----NCCU has been around much longer than intergration.-----
Okay.

-----50 years ago, a black student would have had absolutely no chance of going to Duke or UNC no matter what their scores or grades were.-----
Okay.

-----When those schools started to accept blacks, should they have closed the other schools?-----
No.

-----NCCU is apparently 19% nonblack, assuming that most of those students are white that means that a higher percentage of whites go to NCCU than blacks go to Duke.-----
Okay.

I don't think NCCU is 19% white. It may be 11% Latino and 8 % white. Or thereabouts

My point is that those colleges don't exist just because of a separatist whim, but because they were necessary prior to integration if a black person wanted to go to college in the South. Today they are anachronisms, but it's not like whites can't apply to and attend a HBCU if they so choose.
