[@thezu9250]

@Ash Hegde All university arent created equal. There are plenty or predominantly white universities that also do the same thing. So huh?

[@thezu9250]

@Ash Hegde A lot of the schools are scams. Just because something is an HBCU doesn’t magically make it a good school. I would only go to the top-tier ones. Same thing with other colleges that are PWI or whatever you wanna call them. A lot of degrees are scams. At least with going to some of the top-tier schools, you’re more likely to make connections that will give you a job. That’s why some people go to the top-tier HBCU schools because there is a network of black professionals that can help you.

[@thezu9250]

@Ash Hegde The top 10 HBCUs had an endowment of 2 billon where as the top 10 PWIs had 200 billion. All the HBCUs have 3.9 billon COMBINED! Of course they cant fund everything to the same level. But that doesn’t mean that their INDIVIDUAL programs are poorly ranked or poor quality. You can still get a high-quality education at the top HBCUs (Howard, Spelman and FAMU). But there is no way that they will ever compete with schools that have way more money. Besides, rankings focus on nonsense things. The whole goal is to complete lucrative careers with the least amount of debt and stress possible. For many Black Americans, they feel like HBCUs are a better bet for that at the undergraduate level. They prefer networking opportunities with Black professionals over having the best cafeteria or whatever.

I always wanted to go to an HBCU but never lived close enough to one to attend. These are the trends that need to become norms.

[@SalGersGirl]

YES! My niece is going to Clark Atlanta after considering several HBCUs she wants to be a pediatrician!! Keep it in the community!!

[@estifanosberta-samuel2570]

I love this for our children today!! I would not trade my HBCU experience at Howard University for anything in this world! The way I was prepared for the real world is incomparable!

Having graduated from the illustrious Fisk University, I can tell you that there is NOTHING like the pride and sense of accomplishment you get from knowing that you are walking the same campus where the Fisk Jubilee Singers, W.E.B DuBois, Nikki Giovanni, Congressman John Lewis and so many others in the "Talented Tenth" matriculated and changed the narrative of blacks in America. As the the saying goes, "The blacker the college, the sweeter the knowledge!" #FiskFOREVER

There is risk in everything, so be prepared for ups and downs.

[@mikeascher3463]

Great,this is really helpful at times like this

[@cryptocoinshow2411]

When money realizes that it is in good hands. it wants to stay and multiply in those hands,if you really want to make profit out of the money you've got,you have to take it out of your savings account

[@justinmoore5096]

I wish I applied to an HBCU back in the early 2000's. Had I known what I know now, my experience would have been much better.
