The State fully funded its other land-grant institution but withheld funding from TSU. When Dr. Glenda Glover began the process of calculating an initial amount owed to TSU in underfunding, the State's own calculation later produced a staggering total: $544 million. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs president of TSU, Dr. Glover found herself at the center of a struggle that stretched far beyond one campus. It became a battle for equity, accountability, and the future of every underfunded HBCU in America. With the combined precision of a CPA, attorney, and university leader, she details how the State calculated the $544 million, what it did next, and the decisions that kept the obligation from being fulfilled. The book reflects on what it means when a government acknowledges a debt yet leaves it unresolved. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA story of truth, persistence, and a debt the State itself confirmed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Glenda Baskin Glover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Carrington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/21\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798996657827\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Glenda Baskin Glover \/ Paperback \/ English","offer_id":48750514143389,"sku":"9798996657827","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/files\/img_19b04b01-119f-4eb5-b24e-8d33a6e4e9db.jpg?v=1785918378","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/how-dare-you-an-hbcu-presidents-fight-for-half-a-billion-dollars-owed-and-the-states-actions-to-avoid-payment-9798996657827","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
