Ziggy is actually correct. State money means state rules and restrictions.

With no restrictions imposed by the State, HU can charge more than twice the tuition, without compensating for an in-state vs out-of-state schedule, more for room and board and whatever fees it wants to charge.
Additionally HU has an endowment of $193.4 million vs NSU's endowment of of just $23 million

Of course this is not always the case.

Christopher Newport has turned themselves around and starting to become something special. Follow that blue print.
To stick with a HBCU NC A&T isn't bad. Not too far of a drive.

There are local programs that are doing quite well for NSU to use as a template. They might already be doing so as I have not heard too much about them in a negative light lately.
