Plenty of black celebs went to Howard
How much do they donate?
Too many students graduating with dumb ass degrees that leave them broke as fukk to even give anything back.Honestly, I know it’s a tired point, but until alumni money can create endowments like Non-HBCUs I don’t know if there’s much than can be done.
We (black folks, both graduates and non-graduates of HBCUs) don’t support monetarily, so it forces them to rely on the government faucet, which can be cut off or lessened at any point.
I believe HBCUs and their environment offer a lot to young black folks, but the leadership is filled with old-school thinking blacks who either refuse or have zero idea on how to market and attract the new generation. “Homecoming” is not enough to sell a kid born in the year 2000 to come to a HBCU.
It needs some new blood, IMO

HBCUs should only offer stem courses and cut all those other bullshyt ass degree programs out.

Not Howard...
It has been some suspect stuff going on up there for the past couple years...
Guess Hampton, Morehouse, Spelman, Tuskegee and Fisk gotta hold down the Black Ivies until Howard gets its stuff together .

exactly.. where are the so-called and influential, powerful black elite that @ab.aspectus made a whole thread about? Where are their contributions to the dire financial situations faced by the HBCU's as a whole. But yet, they have the capital, political connections and influence to affect change supposedly. This is an example of what happens when there is not a collective concentration of power, minimal oversight, dependence on corporate sponsorship, lack of reinvesting in education, etc.Plenty of black celebs went to Howard
