[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^. It went on for decades. Giving diplomas to people that don’t take classes and read at a 6th grade level. UNC made sure regular students got in on the scam to say the whole school got lousy educations and not just athletes so the NCAA couldn’t penalize them. It’s legal for a school to suck academically in the NCAA as long as it can suck for anybody there.[/quote]

It definitely went on too long but I suspect that is because the program had more of a political focus than an academic one.  I think that fact and the issues of a white university administration coming down on a new, largely black run program allowed for a noble endeavor to become a major problem for everyone involved.  The school did nothing to push “regular” students into the program, there was and is real interest in AFAM. As we are seeing, it’s a hugely important  subject matter.  It is so important that it deserved a much better effort than was the case.

Where did you go to school? [/quote]
