Today, Kids at HBCU's are convinced they are competing against other HBCU's for jobs and not across the globe. HBCU's were established for what reason? Aren't those days over? Or do we still have to brain wash our black kids these days that the white man is holding us down?
The United States is 75% White, 11% Black. You do the math.

MadeNupe,
I understand what you are saying in a way, but I find that graduates of HBCU's are just as qualified as those students of PWI's. You must also remember that alot of the quantitative parameters that are used to evaluate institutions of higher learning are based on a system that is intrinsicially racist, so there is really no way to make a objective comparison.
Would you feel the same way about the founding of some of the BGLO's on Howard's campus had you become a member of a fraternity other than KAPsi or A Phi A? I guess the world will never know.
