AA isn't as prevalent as you think. I know I didn't get into Alabama because of AA.

But yes, The state schools are hurting the HBCUs tremendously.

I don't think that every minority gets into what ever school they want if that's what you mean.

Yup.

Black kids can now go to schools they weren't allowed in back in the day. Those schools have a much longer tradition and much deeper pockets. Thus better education. Most HBCUs just don't serve much of a purpose anymore.
