So it’s ok to offer a discount to the klan because they are 99% white?


This is really the argument you want to be making? Comparing HBCUs to the KKK?

How about a discount to only a historically white college? Oh that’s right. I would be considered a racist if I used such terminology.


For using the term "Historically White College." No, that wouldn't make you racist. Nor would offering a discount to students, faculty, and staff of that institution. Comparing HBCUs to the Klan, on the other hand . . .

Again, Academy is offering a discount to students, faculty, and staff of a group of institutions. They are not offering a discount to blacks only. Call me when Academy denies a discount to a non-black person holding a valid ID from one of these institutions.

The term used in academia is "predominantly white institution" (PWI).
