President Donald Trump will deliver remarks at the 2019 National Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Conference on Tuesday, Sept. 10, a White House official exclusively told BLACK ENTERPRISE Friday.

More than 1,800 people are expected to attend the conference, which is themed “Enhancing HBCU Competitiveness: Student Achievement. Quality Partnerships. Institutional Performance,” including representatives from each HBCU around the country. It will be held Sept. 8–10 in Washington, D.C. Sources did not specify where Trump will make his speech.

In 2017, President Trump promised to make HBCUs an “absolute priority” and increase federal funding for these institutions. Since then, HBCUs have been included in the federal five-year STEM Education Plan and the federal Research and Development Budget Priorities. In addition, investment in HBCU programs has increased under Title III of the Higher Education Act of 1965. According to a White House statement, this has resulted in the following:

  • A $35 million increase in the Strengthening Historically Black Colleges and Universities Program
  • A $9 million increase in the Strengthening Historically Black Graduate Institutions
  • A $1 million increase in the Strengthening HBCU Masters Programs
  • Meaningful increases investments in student support like Pell Grants, Federal Work Study, and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG)
  • Increases in Howard University’s annual appropriation by nearly $11 million, bringing its fiscal year 2018 investment level to $232.5 million
  • The bill also increased by $10 million investments in the HBCU Capital Financing Program, helping eight schools experiencing financial difficulty to redesign and restructure to better meet student and community needs and fulfill loan obligations.
Republican President Ronald Reagan created the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities back in 1981. In 2002, President George W. Bush moved the initiative from the White House to the Department of Education.President Barack Obama’s administration also put a number of pro-HBCU reforms into place, including doubling the annual investment in Pell Grants, tripling investment in higher education tax benefits, making student loans cheaper to repay, and increasing institutional aid to minority-serving institutions

:manny: What choice do they have?

HBCU’s have to kiss ass because their alumni are not donating on the same level as PWI alumni are.

HBCU’s generate a lot of attorneys (NCCU, etc), doctors (Howard), engineers(NC A&T) politicians (Spellman & Morehouse) yet non of these nikkas help with donations.

Add in the fact HBCU’s disproportionately accept pell grant students ( lower income students) which means lower entrance GPA’s and resources so what’s their alternative option?

All they can do is clap, say amen and thanks for visiting because the alternative (getting the government angry) is the death nail for them.
