Summary
Historically black colleges and universities, Hispanic-serving institutions, and tribally controlled colleges receive direct federal aid to maintain facilities, staff, and academic programs. These funds are in addition to resources from federal programs available to all institutions. Origin and evolution of these special federal programs of direct institutional support, underlying policy purposes, and current support level are examined.
