Mississippi has four colleges sup
ported by the state. Three for white
students and one. (Alcorn College)
for Negro students. The appropria-
ton by the legislature for the three
white colleges for the years 19O4-5
was five hundred and seventy-three
thousand, seven hundred and sixty
five dollars. The appropriation for
the one Negro college (Alcorn) was
only fifty-one thousand one hundred
and eighty-four dollars. Most of this
allowance to the Negro College comes
from the United States Government.
Every year a large part OF the money
allowed for the Negro college is re-
turned to the state treasurer by the
white trustees. Hence, Alcorn costs
the state very little If anything.
