Washington, November 16 (RHC)-- Students at Howard University in Washington, DC have reached a deal that will bring an end to protests at one of the nation’s preeminent historic Black universities. 

Since October 12th, students have been occupying Howard’s Blackburn University Center to demand better campus housing amid reports of toxic mold, pests, and crumbling infrastructure in campus dorms.  The students were also demanding better representation and more transparency from Howard administrators. 

An attorney for the students said that while details of the agreement remain confidential, protesters largely accomplished their objectives.
