Abstract
In this chapter, the authors use the case study method to explore how POBF policies in Florida are either a departure from or an extension of legal segregation. In order to understand the social implications of these policies, the authors first review the history of the once legally enforced segregation experienced by HBCUs, the desegregation cases that acted as legal interventions to help create equality, and the de facto segregation that often resulted from those interventions. Finally, this chapter explores whether POBF policies and resulting resource allocations work to support the mission of desegregation cases, or whether these policies are, in fact, another example of de jure segregation that ultimately results in separate and unequal institutions of higher education.
