who in their right mind is paying $55,000 a year for a DC private, then pay ivy league prices at an HBCU, that is underfunded, where you have to live with mold, rats, and roaches

Just like most of the Ivy League, Georgetown and UVA!

Morehouse / Spelman send more black students to Harvard professional schools than any Ivy League school

The Ivy black grads are getting jobs in IB. They don't need professional school.

Had no idea that you could go straight from undergrad to business school

IB doesn't require business schools. That's kinda the point

Goldman Sachs would disagree with you

Yeah the hbcu students need it. They’re diversity hires for the firm. The Harvard grads don’t.

maybe it has something to do with the fact that Morehouse has produced

U.S. Senator, Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Oscar winner, fortune 500 ceos, board of directors, corporate executives, U.S. Homeland Security Secretary, Surgeon General

All of which doesn't even begin to compare to any of the ivies...

Which Ivy has produced the equivalent of MLK, Jr? Which Ivy has produced a graduate that has a federal holiday named after them? Who has inspired other Civil Rights/freedom movements around the world?

I don't think the college choice has much at all to do with the leader. Bayard Rustin went to Cheney, which isn't that great of a college.
The ivies have definitely graduated civil rights leaders around the world, they've graduated some of the most essential post-colonial leaders in Africa, are you kidding?!

Bayard Rustin made great contributions to the Civil Rights Movement, but MLK, Jr. is THE FACE of the Civil Rights Movement. They are not the same.

No Ivy has produced a SINGLE Civil Rights figure or humanitarian with a stature equal to MLK, Jr. if they had, you would have already named them.

Morehouse has also produced Julian Bond, Spike Lee, Maynard Jackson, Dr. David Satcher, Jeh Johnson, Sen. Raphael Warnock, Howard Thurman, Calvin Butts, Edwin Moses, among many others.

You should really get outside more often: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Harvard_University_people

We’re discussing Black people on this thread. Harvard, nor any Ivy, has produced the luminaries that HBCUs, collectively, have produced. Facts, not feelings.

You say Ketanji, I say Thurgood. You say Barack, I say Kamala. 😉

If you look at the matriculation of the top private schools in America, your Exeter, Andover, Lawerenceville, Brearley, Collegiate, Trinity, NCS, Sta, Sidwell

There are around 5 black grads going to HBCU, although the vast majority of those grads are picking Ivy League schools

Because they're better schools. People here are delusional.

I think more than 50% of the posts on this thread have been from someone trying to stir the pot. Look how it has gone from being about Georgetown and DC area UMC AA families to random aspersions

[Anonymous]

Not sure there's much more to add to this topic, since people are very polarized. I think it's just wise to conclude that there are HBCU families and there are Ivy families.

You are so right about the black UMC split between HBCU or Ivy League.

HBCU presidents famously thought the Obamas weren’t so warm or accommodating since they’re Ivy.

Will be interesting to see if Kamala wins how she treats HBCUs since she’s a product of one. From what Michelle writes in her book about Princeton, it seems to me she hated it and wished she attended an HBCU. Michelle’s high school classmate, good friend, and maid of honor was Santita Jackson, Jesse Jackson’s daughter. She was accepted to Harvard but chose Howard U instead. I am sure she knew Kamala there. It’s rather cool she went to high school with Michelle Obama and college with Kamala Harris.

Ivies were a lot suckier to attend back in the day as a black person. They've improved their black diversity and community tenfold, and the black ivy network will get you insanely far.
