Trump to sign executive order to increase funding for historical black colleges

WASHINGTON — President Trump is expected to provide historically black colleges and universities a long-awaited boost as he looks to outdo his predecessors – including the nation’s first African-American president – on the issue.
Trump will sign an executive order as soon as Monday, when the schools’ presidents arrive in Washington for a visit. It’s expected to strengthen the office that pushes the federal government to do business with the colleges by moving it to the White House and providing it specific goals, according to those who are helping to write the order.
The potential is huge. Federal agencies have thousands of contracts with colleges, universities and think tanks worth billions of dollars, primarily for research.

That money is just going to be used to turn those colleges into internment camps, right? Because he's so racist and all.

THATS RACIST!

I thought Trump hated black people

It'll be fun to watch the left try and spin this some kind of way.
Personally, I don't agree with this. HBUs are nothing but a waste of resources.

Add the wood from the crosses you were planning on burning and use it all to set up tent cities for all of the illegal immigrants

Perhaps Southern-NOLA will use the extra funding to double the 4-year graduation rate from 4% to 8%?

Don't think for a second they won't give it the old traditionally black college try.

These places are racist relics of segregation
This is pointless politicaly b/c he's not going to get any black votes
Are you Trumpkins happy? What's next, more funding for Affirmative Action?

If this helps students stay away from expensive, worthless for-profit degrees, I'm all for it.
If the money disappears in the notorious bureaucracy of many HBCU's, though, I'd rather see it go into the community college system.

It's interesting to watch conservatism tossed aside in favor of Internet memes.

What a waste. HBCUs' time has come and gone. With the exception of a few, most of those schools are absolute dogshit.

There are a few decent ones. Spelman, Morehouse, Hampton and Howard aren't bad. They're where all of the wealthier black kids who attend HBCU's go though.

I can't think of a bigger waste of tax dollars
ETA: just thought of one! Increasing funding to educating women!

So you don't just hate military women. You hate women in general. You're a walking joke, dude.
