Toast how challenging are the academics and how are the females looking down there?
I do and have made it in similar threads to this one, but I dont feel like stating it again to be honest, because most people on here seem to wanna argue first and actually comprehend what i say second.Originally Posted by Wr

I get this but a lot of people don't grow up in all black environments and have lived in "diversity" their whole life. Maybe they go to an HBCU to get that black experience while also getting a degree.
Perhaps it was just the one I attended.. but the acceptance is a misconception. Segregation and hate still exists in these arenas.. it's just realized in the form of the elite black folks, pitting themselves vs the non-elites/poorer. The lighter skinned vs the darker.. its many times subtle.. often times.. not.Originally Posted by gllahone84
I graduated from an HBCU in NC...my state is known for HBCU's and some of the best colleges overall. I enjoyed my experience and if you’re a black person in high school I would strongly consider going to one because the environment is like no other that you've been around probably. I don't understand the hate for an HBCU especially if you’re a person of color, go and witness firsthand the homecomings, girls, and just total acceptance for the most part. There's no division like that, and the only division may come from fraternities and sororities but that's nothing in the grand scheme of things.

hbcu's were created to employ people of color in agriculture and mechanical trades hence why most of them end with a&m. The working field has change and most colleges that have this format hold on to it because of tradition. We are largely a service based economy now. We don't build or farm anything. Until they change, they'll stay stuck in the past. I never went to an hbcu, but my fam did. There is a noticeable difference in the college experience. When you go there, feels like you stepped into the past compared to other colleges. It's like the difference between a high school in the hood and in an affluent tax rich neighborhood. People's priorities are totally different. From the students to the administration. From my experience, don't go to one if you don't have to...

n man u already know AGGIE pride bro..... I'm surprised NT is so against hbcus they easily have a better social scene for blacks I'm in Ohio now n it pale sin comparison to A&T life
Easier scene but less diversity.. I usually talked to the old school faculty b/c those are still the ones that want to see African American's succeed and came through with networks, these new breed cats are only on the ticket if it fits their bill.. And like some dude said before if its not in the top 7/8..ehhh, i'll pass.
As far as HBCU's for Ohio, I believe we have the oldest one being Wilberforce U, others are wack, so like you said 'pale'.. where you at in the state yo?
