Edited for style, make more concise and direct. Also added note that Howard University School of Law claims to have been founded in 1869, making it the oldest law program available to African Americans.Parkwells (talk) 16:23, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

Today I edited the page, which made the claim that Shaw was the second oldest HBCU in the Southern US. However, the source cited for this claim states that Shaw is the single oldest HBCU in the South, I claim that is often repeated. I understand that this is a point of contention, as Clark-Atlanta sometimes claims this mantle, but I edited it to better align with the source cited here.
