WE WERE QUEENS, KINGS...ROYALTY.

I could go on and on about my classmates and my own wonderful experience being a product of Howard University...THE MECCA! But, you have already read about us in all of the current pop culture and trade magazines.

Those who are quick to dismiss black colleges for fear of receiving an inferior education suffer miserably from self hate. These are the same people who would prefer a white doctor to a black doctor...just because. A sad state of affairs!

Singing..."I'm so glad...I went to Howard U!!!!!"

P.S. My future children will go to Howard!
Even though I went to a predominatly(sp) white School SU TO DA FULLEST I have mad love for HBCU's. I think there is no inferior education it is what you make of it. I think the choice comes down to where you are in your life. Some people need that experience some don't but like one person said a long time ago "It is more impossible for a black person to go through life in america without interacting with a white person than it is for a white person to grow up in america and never interact with a black"
