#ICYMI TMCF Chief Business & Legal Officer David K. Sheppard talks about the significance of the Thurgood Marshall College Fund HBCU Fly-In on The Daily Flash. The HBCU Fly-In is an opportunity for presidents and chancellors from HBCUs and PBIs, legislators, policymakers, and corporate leaders to come together to discuss the challenges and opportunities for HBCUs and PBIs, build on victories from last year, and learn more about where we believe we can make a significant contribution to the development of federal policy that impacts our institutions. https://lnkd.in/dEaQjBAt.

Are you really clear on how you want people to see your business? Better question and the first one to ask is are you clear on how you WANT people to see your business and the follow up question is are you delivering a clear message that tells that story?

I’m not being a hater. Let’s have a serious discussion: Why does any Institution of Higher Education feel that having alums who are delegates to a Political Convention is newsworthy? THERE IS NO PURPOSE! That university is trying to engage in DEMOCRAT PARTY GOTV efforts. Their federal funding should be CUT! There are probably 50 Carolina alums who are delegates. A&T has several delegates and you don’t see their University promoting such a common occurrence. I encourage the Administration at NCCU to stay out of politics and focus on fundraising (which last I read, was quite pathetic). Get some of your alums to stop buying BMWs and give you $100 and perhaps we wouldn’t have to utilize so much of our tax dollars on landscaping over in Durham. Black Institutions must stop playing SMALL BALL. This type of BUSHLEAGUE activity is why Blacks as myself, who took Honors and AP courses and excelled DO NOT EVEN APPLY TO THESE SCHOOLS. #GlorifiedHighSchoolers #PoliticallyCHEAPpeople 🤦
