Six Howard University employees were fired previous year for "gross misconduct and neglect of duties" following an independent auditor's investigation into misappropriation of financial aid funds, according to a statement from the school's president Wayne A.I. Frederick.
The students staged a sit-in at the university's administrative office, all the while using Rihanna's "B-- Better Have My Money" into a protest chant. Rihanna added a flexing arm and a raising hands emoji to her caption.
On Thursday (March 29), the singer proved just how much she cares about injustice when she co-signed and amplified the voices of students protesting against Howard University to her 86.6 million Twitter followers. "The audit revealed that the combination of University grants and tuition remission exceeded the total cost of attendance".
The protest follows the publication of a now-suspended Medium post (cached here) by an anonymous blogger who alleged that university officials misused funds.
Singing the aptly titled "Bitch Better Have My Money", the crowd of students gathered in the administration building on campus and let their anger be known.

This past season, he threw for 3,660 yards with 27 touchdowns to go with 1,601 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns. Jackson told NFL Network his game tape should tell NFL teams all they need to know about his speed.
Fredrick did announce yesterday that 6 financial aid employees had been fired.
Frederick met with students on Wednesday to hear their grievances but those present have said they weren't satisfied with the encounter. 'More specifically, the timeline'.
The misappropriated grant money wasn't from the federal government, nor was it money donors designated for grants. Note that university grants are institutional funds used to help support students with student charges.
The student sit-in continued as of Friday afternoon.
