Two ways (at the least) to look at absence of HBCUs:
1. HBCUs are relatively fewer in number, many HBCUs have institutional problems and a lot to lose, and therefore HBCUs have stricter policies on certain matters including sexual assault and rape.
2. Sexual assault and rape tends to be silenced, in general, and such silencing is even more likely in predominantly racial and ethnic minority communities like HBCUs. The absence of HBCUs could mean there is a voice that is not yet heard.
