      I'm unfamiliar with TSU's specifics, but I have direct knowledge of an HBCU's financial operations. Imagine you earn $100,000 per year, but your bills total $110,000. That's the dilemma that most HBCUs face every year. What may look mismanaged to an outsider is just HBCUs juggling money around to survive another year. The Maryland HBCUs (Morgan State, Coppin State, and UMES) had to sue the state of Maryland to receive the proper funding and back funding that was owed.

After segregation became ILLEGAL, the institution was no longer just for “blacks” , it became open to all races. As it is currently illegal to discriminate admission to based off race. The insinuation that the school is just for “blacks” is just not true and misleading. It’s a school for all.
