It just seems like there is a brain drain going on. Those top students who use to got to HBCUs now typically go somewhere else.
I can definitely see that. Black kids with great grades and test scores are recruited aggressively by state schools like Alabama. In addition to that, it takes less for underrepresented minorities to get into really great private schools, so if you're a standout applicant and can get into Duke or go to a state school for free, why consider a school ranked lower that you don't receive preferential treatment from?
