FYI: When I posted this info it was not in a Nanny nanny boo boo I went to a PWI and look @ 2D's HBCU. . . I posted it because I think that any time an HBCU is on the board to be azed, shut down, etc. folks need to know about it. As an alumnus you would know about it sooner than I but please believe me I have tons of respect for HBCUs. There are times that I wish I went to an HBCU but having attended an all BLACK school system, I wanted to see things from another perspective.
To see Grambling dealing with this hurts because this is one less HBCU option that Black students have. For many Black students, an HBCU is their only alternative. So by me posting this again, it was not in an insulting manner.
I also agree at how a PWI can cover things up better or quickly rally the financial support than an HBCU can AT TIMES. Plus PWIs have, typically, larger endowments that they can tap into.
As an outsider, it is time for HBCUs not just Grambling to gain better control over their schools not just financially but who REALLY controls the school.
