Does that change their funding status? Does the UNCF and other organizations support this school despite the fact that less than 40% of the student population is Black/Non-Hispanic? Do alumni/ae support a school that has changed so much?
I know many women who graduated from institutions that were single-sex at the time but are now coed. These alumnae are 50-50 in terms of supporting their alma maters financially or otherwise. The women who don't donate to their alma mater specifically do not donate because they did not agree with their colleges' decisions to go co-ed. The women who do donate regard the college decision as a necessary move to remain competitive.
