I just want people to know that it is highly important that anything dealing with HBCU's is positive---article or not. It seems that the whole focus about why HBCU's were founded in the first place is lost ----which is to continue higher (equal) education for all people. The effects that the media has on HBCU's is heightened and detrimental to the establishment that our forefathers and mothers worked so hard for. Quality education is a common goal for any school beit a school in urban NY or rural MS. However, when articles such as these are published it lures the high school graduate or transfer student away and institutes stereotypical thinking about the south or even HBCUs.
As for rq44, thanks for the history lesson on the term "yank". While you were looking that up, did you bother to do a history lesson on the issues that I have mentioned in the previous post. Obviously not, because you are tooooo concerned with a BS term like "yank" instead of what this thread is about. Now if you want to know how I feel about the term "yank" YOU need to look and read previous post. Honestly, I could give two sh*ts about a menial word like "yank". I will not continue to banter back and forth with you about this stupid a#% topic ( the word yank). Like I said before it was a sarcastic play on words but if you still have a problem and if you want to talk about it PM ME!
