The Hunt Institute releases final briefs of three-part series on HBCU underfunding

Addressing Historic Underfunding of HBCUs juxtaposes Maryland’s use of litigation and public opinion with Tennessee’s bipartisan legislative support. While both approaches resulted in historic settlements to support their Historically Black Colleges and Universities, each state experienced unique challenges and successes from which other states can learn as they consider their own approaches to addressing historic disinvestment.
