Black college admissions falling from 13% to 5% at M.I.T

[Bunchy Carter]

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?

What college did you graduate from and what was your degree in? What was your first job after college?

Tell me a little bit more about yourself so I can attack you from a different angle.

 

[Bunchy Carter]

I didn't ask you because I already know you went to a white school, UMD.....Started out at Morgan State and transferred to UMD, because you wanted a school with a better name, and when you graduated you ended up working with people who went to Morgan State.

According to this woman we need a new Tuskegee agreement


Seriously we do need to strengthen HBCU's

Black immigrants were claiming that losing AA would not impact their enrollment.

 

[Voice of Reason]

Have the DNC speakers/potential cabinet said anything specifically about restoring DEI/Affirmative Action to elevate black people and solidify gains the same way they talk about abortion rights?

Or is that still a bad word because we don't want to do anything that implies the most vulnerable race in the US other than Native Americans will receive a hand up?

hell no

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.

You sound like a damn c00n. We should demand that funding so some of our HBCU can get to R1 status.

That would help our community the most in the long run.

Oh so you one of those post watching nikkas. I see you.

You have to be lol, nikkas be lying.

It gave me context to why your talking down to HBCU, you were always like that and why you an old bitter nikka....Nikka damn near in his mid 40's being an old ass hater lol.

You started at Morgan State (HBCU) in 1999 and transferred to Maryland and worked for Northrop Grumman and while working there you were working with people who you had the same classes with back at Morgan St and that made you mad lol. You thought by going to a White school you would do better (house nikka), but naw nikka you were still with them nikkas at Morgan State lol.

It's true. I started out at Morgan state in 99 but transferred to get a better school name at univ of maryland. After I graduated and started working at northrop Grumman I was working with the same people I had classes with from Morgan state. Gpa was all the same to the gate keepers unless you can go ivy because they get the real preferential treatment and the goat networks

I found out who you are and found your graduation photo from UMD:

No Hating about it.

UMD and Morgan State are basically on the same Tier.
It doesn't bother me that MIT opens up way more doors than either of them. You seem to be taking way more offense to that fact than I do.

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

"they should work trades/be farmers!"- some dildo who has never worked either.

 

[GoldenGlove]

Republicans keep fukking us over. At this point if you are "both sides", you're the enemy

Bipartisan isn't a thing anymore?

 

[Mission249]

That would help our community the most in the long run.

And why can't we have both?
Access to MIT and funding for HBCU's?
What's the plan when we get neither?

Why would losing access and leverage help any of our causes?

 

[JamesJabdi]

Reality is that they missing out and not the black students. Any top university knows that a diverse population is their strength. This is a win for HBCU's.

And of course coli c00ns got more energy and put the blame on regular black men instead of politicians for institutional white supremacy

The only answer. These guys are pathetic, all broke too. So what has their school done for them? lol
