Hello everybody...I'm a student at Morgan St. and I am conducting a servey of HBCU students for an agruementative research paper. Please take the time and answer my questions or participate in the poll. Your help id needed and I am truely grateful if you do respond. Servey questions 1. Why do you think that HBCU's have problems with funding from government, alumni and other sources? 2. Why do you think that African-Americans do not want to attend HBCU's? 3. Why are the standards for accptance into HBCU's inferior to those of TWI's? Again, I would like to thank you for participating in my servey. And if you can, I would like you to answer the poll question as well. Again I say thank you.

1. Not all HBCU's have money problems, those part of a state system are fine. Also, many schools, not just HBCU's, are in trouble due to the country's economic situtation. 2. Many simply dont know about them all. Many HBCU's rank with or better than majority of white schools. And since some HBCU's have smaller doweries they offer less scholarship and such, this forces many blacks to either go to a HBCU with lil to no money in scholarship or simply take a State scholarship. 3. NOT TRUE!!! The top-teir HBCU's have standards even with top-teir whites. Lower Tiers are equal to other lower tier. But, you must consider the historical of this claim. Many black schools were created to allow admitance to any black because it was believe that previous failure was caused by the nature of society. This view simply has carried over.
