Okay. We've all heard the problems that most HBCUs go through with their administration or policies. However, it seems to me that little, if nothing, is being done about it. Places such as the financial aid and business offices seem to be disorganized and understaffed. Deans, when they are needed, seem to be "too busy" or never there. There have been many complaints from students about those things which are huge problems, but solutions are rarely ever presented. I believe that each student body at every HBCU needs to come together and address those issues. How do you think that these problems can be fixed before it's too late?
I personally believe that for one, it should begin with funding and that those who graduate from HBCUs should donate money, that way more staff can be hired to work in those adminstrative positions. I think that because most offices are understaffed, it's the root of most problems that HBCUs face.
