[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As far as I can tell, they don't give Banneker a shot for the very same reasons there are few whites at historically black colleges. Even a great school like Howard attracts very few whites. Banneker's traditions are outside the orbit of whites and other races. [/quote] I think for some, it's about having more of a traditional high school experience. DS is bi-racial and would not consider Banneker because he wanted to play basketball, go to football games, play in the band, etc. Had nothing to do with race. Our friend's child, same age is white and loves Banneker. [/quote]
