Georgia Increases Tuitiion for College Students
Regents Vote to Raise College Tuition: MyFoxATLANTA.com
This hits close to home. In a time of financial stress and tumoil for ther citizens of the country, it is apparent that the Georgia Board of Regents is feeling the impact. I understand that they need more money to support their programs and institutions, but I do not understand how they feel that students are going to be able to bare this. In a time when the average school loan debt is at its highest, I beleive it is unfair to perpetuate the issue. I dont have all the answers, but Im sure if they let us students join the conversation we would come to an agreement that would work for both sides. Just an Idea...

HBCU Grads Vs. Other Black Grads
HBCU Grads Outperform Black Graduates of White Colleges
By Deborah Creighton Skinner
New study shows alums do better financially.
Filed Under HBCU
There's great news for students who opt for HBCUs over traditional white-majority institutions.
African-Americans who graduate from a historically Black college or university do better financially than Blacks who graduate from traditionally white colleges and universities, according to a new study by economists at Morehouse College and Howard University.
“Our results suggest that as HBCUs afford graduates relatively superior long-run returns, they continue to have a compelling educational justification as the labor market outcomes of their graduates are superior to what they would have been had they graduated from a non-HBCU,” wrote the researchers.
As the debate about the relevance of HBCUs continues, this survey shows that these schools continue to serve a purpose for students.
The study was published last month in the Review of Black Political Economy, and was written by Gregory N. Price of Morehouse College and William Spriggs and Omari H. Swinton of Howard University.
