only thing we got out here on the west coast is king drew(medical school)...

But CC's and Universities are dirt cheap out here :whew:
Idk why more brehs don't take advantage of it

Thought a lot of nikkas in Cali did tho. That's one thing I noticed when I was out there, yall nikkas got a lot of state schools and it seemed like I met a lot of hood nikkas who had went to a college at least for a little bit. The way my dude out there made it seem was like anybody out there who is a resident and wants to go can do it really easy and for the low.

Kind of, but not really, a lot of cats attempt college....but most don't make it out of freshmen / sophomore year. And a ton of people at JC's are in remedial english and math classes. I'm talking damn near esl english classes and basic arithmetic.

As far as funding, JC's are free for residents. There's a fee waiver which makes tuition free. Cal States and UC's also get a lot of aid. I only had to come out of pocket $400 for my tuition. Everything else was paid by fasfa....

So yeah theoretically anyone who's a resident and wants to go school can go for practically nothing, but most people just flunk out, party or life happens :yeshrug:

You guys can't seriously expect most black people who grew up in an integrated society to "self segregate" themselves just because you put such a high importance on blackness and don't like being around white people (cacs, the mature way to say it).
It's useless to complain about the inevitable/try to stall it.
(I never had any interest in going to one nor did any black person I know)
If it's your thing cool, but stop whining about the glory days of segregation (which only some of you do) or try to shame people over it.

How about you actually explain your problem with my post instead of just negging me.
And you all need to face it, the "black unity" you all want to achieve which includes the prevalence of HBCU's is impossible to achieve in modern society so you should stop complaining about it and switch gears to what is plausible.
Are you telling me it's rational to expect most black people to self "segregate" themselves after growing up in an integrated society?
To expect that they put the same value on blackness as Coli posters?
To dislike being around white people as much?
HBCU's will continue to die and that's the natural evolution of things regardless of how you feel about it and I'm not saying that's a good thing just saying that it is what it is.
And just because a school isn't a black school that doesn't mean the alternative is a white school, that's just your negativity speaking.

Now explicitly your problem @Kitsch.
Give me a logical reason why any of my points were wrong based on the effects of integration.
Each of those points are facts.

Nothing worse than delusionally bourgeois negroes. "Where are we gonna get our next blackity black doctors, lawyers, small town novelists who solve murders, top secret agents, scientists injected with experimental serums that turn them into superheroes, that will continue the tradition of leeching from and simultaneously looking down upon the blackity black community?"

I swear u nikkas suck, man. Straight up and down, corny as fukk n have no goddamn idea. Ur the a$$holes strangling the black community n u sit around shaking ur lil peanut 2nd generation of wealth heads at real nikkas. Man, fukk y'all and fukk ur jheri curl ass colleges.

Not today b.
People on thecoli have to know that they're an INCREDIBLY small minority on all things race related right?
And that being so you all can't seriously be trying to hold the majority of black America to these standards when they're operating on an entirely different playing field than you?
You all are seriously holding out on the impossibly of being able to reverse the effects of integration on any level such as with the sustainability of HBCUs when that's literally an impossible task?
It's absurd and unfair and a waste of your time.

And if anyone doesn't get it I'm not saying HBCUs going down is a good thing just that it was an inevitability and is irreversible for a number of reasons related to integration and the way personal relations work and that it's absurd to expect anything otherwise from black Americans.
