11.11.2025 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Senate Passes Bill to End Shutdown, HBCU Reopens After 10 Years, Texas A&M Ideology Clash In a 60-40 vote, the Senate passed the funding bill that would end the longest government shutdown in history. The bill heads to the House for a final vote. A Utah judge denied the GOP-passed congressional map, which created two competitive districts that still favored Republicans. The return of students to North Carolina's Barber-Scotia College marks a significant milestone for the HBCU. The president will be here to discuss how the school went from disrepair and loss of accreditation to reopening its campus and welcoming back students for the first time in nearly a decade. The Texas A&M Board of Regents will vote on whether to limit the teachings of 'race or gender ideology' in university classrooms. Alabama Congressman Shomari Figures introduced legislation to honor the first Black aviators in U.S. military history by renaming a post office after the Tuskegee Airmen.

It's good they will focus on online degrees as well. This is a great opportunity for HBCUs. Many adults would like to get their degrees and to be a graduate of an HBCU would be a big draw. All HBCUs should have a deep online program. Maybe the divine nine should consider allowing online pledges😂
