tudies have shown the average high school grad is better off going straight into the work force than going to an HBCU.....And that’s compared to only HBCU grads, not even those that don’t graduate



That is meaningless unless you also compare to white colleges.

But, considering you are a student it isn’t surprising that you don’t understand how to use data.

And, link.

Lol

Your study: han as an alumnus of certain HBCUs, because their earnings as HBCU graduates over 20 years will not eclipse what they will owe in student debt incurred by attending these schools


CERTAIN. DEBT.

I’m in a pretty large company

There’s about 3 black people on the floor (of around 100-120)

its so amazing to me that TD is such a bubble that the MSB routinely gets construed as having a heavy and active left leaning presence



Yup.

And they have trouble with basic logic.

I didn’t say Hill was right. Nor Watson. I simply stated that black people do better st those schools. That doesn’t mean they are great schools. That they don have issues.

But stating this means I’m woke. Lol

I linked the earlier study.

Would you like a study that compares average salaries for black grads from HBCUs vs black grads from traditional universities?

LINK

quote:

• Black graduates from HBCUs earn lower annual salaries, on average, compared to same- race graduates from PWIs and these differences persist even when controlling for institutional selectivity;


All HBCUs do is offer an easier path to graduation. They are in no way shape or form better for a black student capable of getting into both

Blanket statements like this only show how ridiculous you are, and that you didn’t bother actually reading the bullet points.

Because obtaining a “higher status” means what?

You aren’t smart.

I guess almost all Louisiana schools and their students are shite cause their starting salaries are less than other schools.

Then why are they making less money?

So, if that’s the case, the study showed a law graduate from an HBCU makes less than a liberal arts major from a PWI

Makes sense
