Or at least is makes you wonder what the connection to the college was. I too think it's interesting when people go to colleges where they will be an extreme racial or ethnic minority (Cool interesting, not freak show interesting). With PWIs (which I'm guessing is Predominantly White Institution, right?), sometimes you might imagine that people go because it's the big state school or it's public and cheap. Often when you talk about HBCs, the tradition that attracts someone has got to be different than that, since often they are smaller, private, and maybe not so cheap, and especially for undergraduate school, I am curious about the particular elements that drew someone in.
