EVERY DAY COMES MORE BAD NEWS FOR US..
The number of Black men enrolled at HBCUs continue to decrease.. In 1976 it was 38%, now it's 26%..
And guess what, at mainstream colleges and universities it's the same decline etc.. Plus, when you see Black men at white colleges/universities, chances are they are enrolled as athletes.. Did y'all see the young Black men at the recent college Basketball tournament/March madness? Overwhelming majority of players!!
NOW CHECK THIS OUT: 'While the overall enrollment of Black students at HBCUs has increased by 15% between 1976 and 2022, the INCREASE IN NON-BLACK STUDENTS HAS BEEN MUCH HIGHER - 117%, resulting in a decrease in the percentage of Black students at HBCUs.'
At this pace, in a decade or so, non-black students may well be a majority at HBCUs. Ouch! WAKE UP MY PEOPLE!!!!!

Good info! In many ways, Black colleges appeal to me more than all the others. I love their teacher's hands on approach. Plus, they are mentor oriented, taking special interest in students. Further, they're community oriented and inclusive. I'll bet white kids at these schools have a positive experience. In my 78 years on earth, my times with Black groups always have been positive; i've always been accepted. I do understand your concern about the eventuality of many of them becoming predominantly white. I think it important to preserve the cultural and historical significance of these institutions.
