A truly sad day

ATLANTA -- Morris Brown College lost its bid to get its accreditation back.

The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools on Monday released a letter denying the historically Black College's appeal.

The association's decision means Morris Brown students will no longer qualify for federal financial aid. Nearly 90 percent of the private school's students rely on that aid.

Morris Brown's membership in the United Negro College Fund also will be removed as result of the decision.
