#MacKenzieScott being left off some top philanthropy lists is probably more about how private she is. She has never seemed interested in fame, press tours, or building a public image around her donations.

She just quietly gives away billions to organizations, including major support for HBCUs and underserved communities.

I just listened to a #podcast from @progresstx where they were suggesting that #BlackAthletes choose an #HBCU over an #SEC #university because, #football.

I used their "Connect with us" form to point out that this isn't on Black athletes to solve. White students — athletes and non-athletes — should consider alternatives, especially #HBCUs, too. Sometimes we don't have #options, but when we do, we should choose intentionally.

I'm attending a state school because I'm #disabled and my tuition and fees are waived. So I understand that not everyone has this option.

Glad to see that Baltimore’s Morgan State University is among the HBCUs seeking R1 status. Among all the other reasons this is a good thing, it will be good for Baltimore! #HBCU #HigherEducation https://mastodon.social/@jeffjarvis/116487858915484353

I mentioned the grant for this project years ago but not when the project launched: HBCU Radio Preservation. From the Who We Are page: “HBCU radio stations train students entering broadcasting careers and provide an outlet for communities to engage on issues while reveling in the sounds of the Black diaspora. Their rhythms and stories demand to be heard. And yet, the original programming […]

Unbelievably, #VirginiaState University - an #HBCU - ‘bent the knee’ to #DonaldTheDeplorable #Trump and his gang of #BananaRepublicans who want to #EliminateTenure in #HigherEducation. https://www.insidehighered.com/news/faculty-issues/tenure/2026/02/25/vsu-terminates-6-professors-without-due-process

#Project2025 is looking more and more like the #CulturalRevolution started by #MaoZedong in #China. 🤔

“‘We have a combined 90 years of service to the Commonwealth,’ Temu said. The six professors also brought in $10 million in grant funding this year alone.

None has received written documentation about their termination …. Some of the fired faculty members were replaced with ‘recently hired more junior research scientists’”

All HBCUs have some non-Black attendees. Anyone can look that up before making a fool of themselves in front of people 🤷‍♂️
