I'm not an HBCU alumna, but my mother attended Howard for two years in the late 1940s before she had to drop out for lack of $$$.
I want to see such schools preserved because our kids may need them more than ever if the Supreme Court kills off affirmative action admissions, which may happen by next June. And I think it's going to happen.
The court agreed to review the 1978 Bakke case, which concerns how colleges and universities use race in admission standards.
The Morris Brown story is very unsettling, and I do feel sorry for those young people.
