My daughter started at a PWI and wanted to transfer to an HBCU, I did t want her to because of the opportunities but I allowed her to go where she wanted to go. In the end I'm glad she did because she has gotten a strong sense of pride in her blackness and has more confidence in herself then she's ever had.
@@sharpaycutie2 That is wonderful for you. If you would have read this comment to understand rather than to respond you probably would have formed a better sentence while writing your comment. Blessings 🙏
@DS Thank you. I have always made clear to her that she is not less than anyone but I was speaking on the college. I have seen employers look at the education of an HBCU student as less than if they went to a PWI.
Dr. Kimbrough (President of Dillard) gave some kids that were touring Dillard along with Pwi’s in Louisiana some of the best advice I’ve ever heard. “You can be admitted anywhere…Go where you’re ACCEPTED”.
In my experience, I went to college for an education and just that. I grew up around very pro black people so an HBCU wasnt necessary but I thought about it in undergrad. I also understood the grass isn't always greener. I did however graduate college with 3 internships and 4 job offers a curly fro and a nose ring (advertising major - context matters). Advice: take teachers and counselors advice with a grain of salt and [do your own research.] Apply, apply, apply. IDC where you go, but apply to as many internships as possible. Experience and networking gets you jobs. Every industry has a work culture so be prepared for that, but that isn't a PWI vs HBCU thing thats a society thing. Creative industries you can be a more liberal. Stem & Business is a bit more conservative. Welcome to the real world.
Spelmanite here and we are the creme de la creme. Just Kidding! My mom and grandmother both attended a small HBCU in Austin, TX - Huston-Tillotson University and both are some of the highest achievers I've ever met. The conversation presented here was a bit scattered but your major, personality, & needs in general should factor in your decision. Studies do show that Black people tend to actually complete and graduate from HBCUs at an increased rate when compared to those attending PWIs (especially males). I wouldn't change my experience for the world!
I would agree with you, that blacks graduate higher at HBCUs. I went to a small HBCU (and graduated)where the professors knew my name. I had some black professors and some white professors. The black professors always wanted to make sure we succeed. Had extra hours for tutoring. The white professors were more less like “you get or don’t, I don’t care” . Also there were a lot whites taking classes at my HBCU. Funny part is u didn’t see them after the sun went down or on the weekends. Whites and others get to take classes at HBCUs for free. The only white girl in my dorm told me that.
I regret not attending an HBCU but having grown up in a predominantly white high school, when it was time to think about college they dropped the ball on broadening our horizons I will say...plus I come from a hard working single mom (she didnt have time to help me) so she was just glad I was going. I'll admit the PWI I went to carries weight, people either think I'm rich or I'm highly intelligent when I tell them where I went. but I felt so alone. The black people were different the black guys stayed in the white girls faces. thank goodness they had a fantastic African american studies program where I met some like minded students whom I cool with til this day. it wasnt even my major but those professors really cared and helped me get through.
He is a journalist by trade so it makes sense why he would be talking more. but I think Donnie bring a different dimension to the other than just pure journalism skills.
Where can we find the rest of the video? My son attended a PWI ( he was depressed and was not motivated ) after he graduated high school but he has now transferred to an HBCU and loves it there and doing exceptionally well academically. I kept pushing him to go because his high school years were difficult, attending a PWI High School. I will always support HBCU’s
I wish I had went to an HBCU. Most of the time I was the only black person in the class. If there are certain sensitive issues that are discussed in class I felt so alone because the white kids didn’t understand and i was the sole voice. People I know that attended HBCUs have a sense of pride and still 20+ years later attend events at their school. I wish I had that sense of pride and desire to go back to homecoming, games, etc.
Exactly!!! I went to NC Central and graduated and proud of it. I work a job in my field of social work. Glad I went there and didn’t feel the need to transfer. On the other hand my sister went to pwi UNC loved it and graduated with honors. She didn’t feel out of place. Made great friendships with white and blacks there.
As a fourth generation HBCU graduate (who later earned a graduate degree at a PWI), I had the same thought as as I was listening to the profiles of the panel. It was a very unbalanced paneled. There wasn't a single panelist who was a graduate of an HBCU or on track to graduate from an HBCU soon. Everyone there was either a PWI student and/or someone who transferred from an HBCU to a PWI with no plans of returning to or graduating from an HBCU. I think that inviting a person who completed their HBCU journey would have made for a more informative and deep conversation. When one panelist twice vaguely stated that Howard was disorganized in terms of academics, I wanted at least one of the interviewers to press him to give his specific experience that he was dissatisfied with. Did his classes lack the rigor he expected? Were his professors not good or supportive? They never pressed him on that point. Overall, I think that the interview was pretty mediocre.
This IN MY OPINION was a very weak commentary. There was no solid discussion or direction for the discussion. The main host (whatever his name is) didn’t even know these kids backgrounds and clearly he wasn’t listening just like his cohost, as he made the same mistakes when NOT listening to what the kids were saying about the schools they had attended. The light skin dude stated in the beginning of his commentary that he started off at a PWi then transferred to HBCU and then went back to the same PWI then he allowed the guy to continue speaking, just to turn around and ask ok so you went back to a PWI where are you now ? Like really are you niggaz not listening ? It’s crazy to me. Then they seem to hound the black girls when she was speaking So highly about why she enjoyed her HBCU and getting the opportunity to learn from educated black women around her that that was a bad thing ! This was horrible in my opinion. I’ll who’s show this is but they need to do better !
I agree. The commentary was vague, and the interviewers did not for specifics to help the audience better understand the points the interviewees were making.
I doubt the dude Donny went to an HBCU or met many people who have because nobody really looks down on other HBCU's it really is a family affair. And most people rep their schools with pride. FAMU!
Why is this man Donny here? The man says nothing of relevance in an interview I have seen. The man is taking up space. At least the other host is trying.
Not proud ? I wear my school every day SKEGEE. and those that go to PWI’s don’t do much better, but then again their ice is always colder😐 If I had to do it all over I would choose the same. TU you know and if you don’t Mmmmm I wonder why🎤
HOWARD was VERY unorganized - a hellacious time acquiring resources. UGA was MUCH MORE organized and had student unions of various cultures where you could connect with YOUR ppl no matter your background

@Troy VinsonSo I heard and especially after Biden cut more funding
"You like them white women huh?, nah I'm just playin" Lmao og on his a%$ 😂😂✊🏾
Og done dipped in them white women too
It's what you want out of life, you just have to create what you want.
Doctor Boyce Watkins has been talking about this for years. Check out his video of why it's important to educate our own children.
HU, You know!
I'm not sure why Mike needs the other interviewer. I'm all for everyone having a job. This isn't his calling.
He is a journalist by trade so it makes sense why he would be talking more. but I think Donnie bring a different dimension to the other than just pure journalism skills.

Who's ashamed of their HBCU???? TSU go hard!!!
You could not find one proud “graduate” of an HBCU for your panel? #SCStatealum
Exactly!!! I went to NC Central and graduated and proud of it. I work a job in my field of social work. Glad I went there and didn’t feel the need to transfer. On the other hand my sister went to pwi UNC loved it and graduated with honors. She didn’t feel out of place. Made great friendships with white and blacks there.

I agree and they wonder Y this show is trash for ratings.
This had the potential of being a great in depth topic of conversation.
I agree. The commentary was vague, and the interviewers did not for specifics to help the audience better understand the points the interviewees were making.
Soooo they ALL ended up at a PWI?? Biased or nah?
TN State university 💙 #HBCUproud
@Troy Vinson wth🤨! where the hell u get that dumb idea from? Ur a 🤡.
I doubt the dude Donny went to an HBCU or met many people who have because nobody really looks down on other HBCU's it really is a family affair. And most people rep their schools with pride. FAMU!
I went to both and honestly there was so much more black unity at the PWI than at the HBCU.
Marquis Caston I agree I’m from nyc and I started college at 17 in September 1999 at NYU and it was great
Why is this man Donny here? The man says nothing of relevance in an interview I have seen. The man is taking up space. At least the other host is trying.
So yal have anyone who graduated from a HBCU🙄.
Not proud ? I wear my school every day SKEGEE. and those that go to PWI’s don’t do much better, but then again their ice is always colder😐

Pwi's are always better, why more money with nicer facilities nicer School, better everything.. facts are the facts always go to a pwi
You sound very ignorant. It shows you went to a pwi lol smh
@@RJ25255 I wouldn't say they are always better it just depends on what you're looking for
I graduated from AAMU and I agree. HBCUs are underfunded but at least I had fun marching in a HBCU band.
Exactly PWI is way better education is taking more seriously and employment rates are higher!!!
