Politics in a public university....it cant be good. Politics sway back and forth.

Yes, of course. Its just a matter of time. But schools arent doing so well now, so it might take a while.

Some of the first universities to admit Blacks were private. In the south your large publics didn't admit Blacks in earnest until the 1970s. W. E. B. Dubious earned the AB in 1890 and the PhD in 1895 from Harvard. I went to Southern Miss in the early 80s and I knew the first Black to attend!
