[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you been to Hoawrd Law lately?  But more importantly do you know where the Banneker site sits in relation to Howard University?

There's nothing racist in wondering whether Howard U might covet land directly across the street from it more than land in the backwaters of Van Ness.  Did you even think your rant through before you jumped to your conclusions?

But yes, UDC can't be moved for a whole host of political and perception reasons - but there's nicer ways to tell people that, because if you haven't noticed, a lot of people here are relatively new to the city and don't know the local history.[/quote]

Black schools are not chess pieces for white DC to move around to satisfy our every whim. If Howard or UDC think moves are in their best interests, presumably they’ll pursue them. Don’t insult us by suggesting that you have their best interests at heart.

Why aren’t we speculating on whether, say, Burke might want to relocate? They have a beautiful building that would be great for a DCPS! And what about Maret, so close to the metro, on all of that beautiful land. Perfect for a charter school! Maybe Georgetown Law would want to move out of their space near Union Station to be closer to the main campus....

Maybe because all the schools you mention are private schools?  How about is this relevant?[/quote]

You don't realize Howard Law School is a private school?[/quote]
