Georgetown Will Offer An Edge In Admissions To Descendants Of Slaves
Apparently, not all the slaves owned at any time by the school, but only those sold by the Jesuits to others because they needed the money to pay off the failing school's debts.
These applicants will be handled in the same way as "legacy students," "applicants whose family members attended Georgetown."
No particular tuition assistance is contemplated.
I would guess Georgetown is not cheap.
Odd approach.
The Jesuits owned plantations and owned slaves to provide the labor for them, and used the plantation earnings to support the school.
