Dude, whether or not the grads are famous is NOT the fukking point on whether or not the education and that person's contribution to society is a success.Your punk ass can name only 2 Famous Black people who graduated from MIT.
Also the graduating class size of MIT from 2014 to 2024 is 3,400 to 3,800....it's not just over 1,000....the graduating class is just over 3,000

You need help listing these famous Black MIT graduates, so let me help you with another one Robert Robinson Taylor.
It's funny that your so Pro Black, but your quick to talk down on HBCU'S lol.........Now name the famous Black people who graduated from MIT
Robert Robinson Taylor is "famous" to people interested in Architecture which is not most people. Isaiah Blankson is not "famous"
Man was doing work with NASA in it's Hypersonics program and was PIONEERING hypersonic technology and general aircraft concepts. Patents for days for this man.
Don't nobody with sense give a shyt about who was "famous" when we talk about influential people who actually make society progress. MIT almost literally spits out people who shape our decades.
As I already pointed out to you, the Black kids who could get into MIT weren't going to HCBU's whether they get accepted to MIT or not. Claiming that the choice is between MITs and HCBUs was just factually wrong, and part of your fake internet militancy that you use to avoid discussing the real world.
You can't be that stupid - did you read the link or not? I was pointing out that the "most successful people" from MIT usually aren't household names. I could list people like John W. Thompson (CEO of Microsoft) or Ron Williams (CEO of Aetna, advisor to President Obama, served on the boards of Boeing, Johnson & Johnson and American Express) who had massive amount of influence and power, but that doesn't mean you know their names. Kofi Annan was the Secretary-General of the United Nations and won the Nobel Peace Prize, Shirley Ann Jackson was Chairman of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission, President of RPI for 23 years (highest-paid college president in the country), and served on the board of the Nature Conservancy (largest environmental NGO in the Western Hemisphere), but you just ignore their accomplishments or the fact that they would NEVER have attained such positions without that MIT degree.
MIT graduates become CEOs, CTOs, run financial firms, make tech startups, are coveted for heads of engineering, develop new medicines, run international NGOs, staff the science offices of federal departments, write federal policy, and staff the leading schools in the county at the professor, dean, and president levels. Sorry if you don't think that's something Black folk should aspire to and you measure relevance by internet fame.
I'm arguing about college with someone who doesn't know what a "graduating CLASS" is. Your own link says their graduating class last year was 1,099.
Obviously you want the answers to trivia questions, not actual influence. We're having two completely different conversations.

It was a white man who orchastrated the lawsuit (one of a dozen he has pushed) and he only recruited some Asians as figureheads because he lost the lawsuits when he recruited White people. In the end, that probably didn't matter because the case he lost 4-3 in 2016 with Obama's court would have been a 5-4 or 6-3 win with Trump's court even with the White litigants.
"Edward Blum has been working toward the end of race-based admissions in higher education for years. He first brought the issue of affirmative action before the Supreme Court in 2012, with Fisher v. University of Texas — a case he ended up losing. Since then, the 71-year-old legal activist has founded a group called Students for Fair Admissions, which just won at the Supreme Court against Harvard and the University of North Carolina, in a decision that effectively ended race-based affirmative action policies in American college admissions."
Meet Edward Blum, the man behind the Harvard affirmative action case
If you look behind the curtain of affirmative action litigation in recent decades, there you will find Edward Blum.

He Worked for Years to Overturn Affirmative Action and Finally Won. He’s Not Done. (Published 2023)
Edward Blum’s latest victory at the Supreme Court is the culmination of a long fight to take race out of college admissions. Is the workplace next?

What type of comparison is this and what will it prove?
You want to compare the list of famous graduates from the 100+ hbcu schools against the list of famous graduates from M.I.T.?
That's like comparing Floyd Mayweather's top wins against the list of top wins for the 100 greatest pound for pound boxers of all time.
I hate to say it, but people from prestigious colleges are given precedence when it comes to graduate/professional school admissions and C suite jobs. It's damn near an axiom of truth at this point.

You nikkas should have known I was playing with you because I do not care for Affirmative action lol. I wanted to see these "Pro-Black" people talk down on HBCU's for PWI's and Affirmative Action has not helped FBA's since it was first installed and I am pleased to see Black enrollment of HBCU's has increased. I graduated from Grambling State University (STEM Major), and for the year of 2023, we saw a 10% increase of freshman enrollment.
Grambling State sees 10% increase in freshmen enrollment
For a second straight year, Grambling State University (GSU) has seen a significant increase in the number of new incoming freshmen. Overall fall of 2023 enrollment numbers show

Black Immigrants benefit more from Affirmative Action than Black Americans:
Affirmative Action Helps Black Immigrants, but Not Black Americans
At my college, many departments offer modest awards for the best black students. The college rejected one department’s selected winner, however, because the student was Jamaican. Students of recent Caribbean or African immigrants do not qualify. This administrative decision points to a conundrum...www.aei.org
Like I said before @Professor Emeritus Wife is White women, she is a White Arab and she benefited from Affirmative Action, that is why he's in here bullshytting lol:
I forgot @Professor Emeritus back then Rhakim, admitted his wife is Non-Black, she is actually a White Arab. He was trying to brag and say he is her first and only lover lol. He tried to go back and edit the post, this nikka is funny.

MIT is the #1 ranked Engineering school in the world: Massachusetts Institute of Technology [Acceptance Rate + Statistics]
Grambling State is #5,236 out of 6,684: Grambling State University [2024 Rankings by topic]
Whether you agree with those rankings or not, they are an accurate measure of who applies to those schools. MIT's loss of Black enrollment is NOT resulting in Grambling State's gains. They are completely different pools of students. Your constant need to throw on the cape for Trump and his judges is causing you to talk complete nonsense.
Copts aren't white or arab, idiot. Copts were in Egypt for thousands of years before the Arabs came in during the Muslim expansion, that's why they're genetically North African rather than Arabian or Southern European. No one would look at my wife and think she's white (they usually guess biracial or afro-latina). But there's a reason you always talk about my wife - you have zero rational arguments to make on the subject itself. You'd rather spam my success in life rather than the one you don't have and are starting to believe you never will.
Of course, making insane, ill-informed posts for political reasons isn't new for you.
Imagine how stupid you would have to be to claim Trump is honest, especially about Black people? He FREQUENTLY claims he loves Black people and doesn't have a racist bone in his body, then turns around and calls them low-IQ, prone to crime, and all sorts of other insults while pushing every possible policy to screw them over. How is that "honest"??? And why the fukk would you want such a person in power?

I'm not surprised. You guys have have the same talking points.
If you say so. We just happen to live in the real world.
These stats seem to say otherwise, but I guess you're assuming that they only admit foreign black people. A haitian MIT grad paid me a high 6 figure salary to work for his minority owned business. He also hired a lot of students from Morgan State as well.
In any case you're an advocate for lowering the glass ceiling
