Why was no one from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering interviewed? That's a joint college that merges the schools together successfully. I attended FAMU as an engineering major and I took electives at FSU as well as my engineering classes at the CoE. I think that I had the best of both worlds and did get to interact more with FSU students than the average FAMU student studying the same majors that FSU offers but is siloed to the campus.
Great video, the divide has always been there and sometimes it can get ugly........... Two great universities less than a few miles apart, but i think it’s a mindset on both sides of the track that divides us. FAMU always feels like we always have to prove ourselves just to be respected and not looked down on by them. FSU feels like they’re too good to even be spoken in the same sentence with Famu. When in actuality both schools are in the hood, One in “French-town” the other “Southside “, both schools have great educations to offer but different experiences...........With that being said I REPRESENT F.A.M.U OCTOBER 3rd 1887 WHAAAAAT?! Freddy J Spring 13 Grad of FAMU
I graduated from FSU and knew people from FAMU and didn't look at them any differently. We are all students. There is no divide, they are 2 different Universities in the same city. One is bigger than the other. One is free to choose which one they would like to attend based on their field of study. Has nothing to do with race.
Look - a school is as good as what YOU bring to it. They all teach the same things - it's up to you to study and do your best. Hell, you can honestly get as good as an education online as at Harvard - I'm not just saying that. It's true. It's nice to have the camaraderie of peers while at college, and if you have inspiring professors all the better - but you can do just as well in life no matter where you go to school. This is my opinion. :-)
I appreciate the questioning, but I think in order to have more of an honest look at the issue, questions should have been more direct and specific, as opposed to just broad generalizations that don’t really express much. For example, “when people say FSU is better“, that doesn’t really mean anything. A better question would’ve been for someone to specify in what way one institution would be better than the other, and I think in some cases it would be accurate. For example if you were talking about football, objectively yes FSU is better, if you were talking about specific fields of academics, and I’m sure FAMU would be better and some ways. I guess I feel this kind of rhetoric is more helpful if it’s not so arbitrary and emotion seeking. That doesn’t help solve problems.
Ofc it’s a divide and it kinda pisses me off they try to say is absolutely not. If you know HBCU then you understand what I’m saying. CULTURE, people of pwi are sometimes arrogant to their blessings and try to over look famu
Real talk, I marched in the Famu marching 100 while attending FSU. The Famu students were the one’s who always spoke negatively of FSU and never the other way around but then when they realized they were getting swindled out of their financial aid, they couldnt get those transfer papers in fast enough lol. This was my experience but I hope this was just in the past and that things have changed since.
Famu's hazing was v serious back in the day - and I imagine it might still be because it was so entrenched in the culture of that band. (My father was a doctor who treated a kid who got beat so badly by that band that his kidneys stopped working and he was in the ICU for months and months....)
I’m currently a film student here at Florida state and unfortunately your statement still holds true … we as fsu students are always the ones being come after and never the other way around .
I wasn't there (FAMU) to be their friend. I wanted to compete against them (FSU honors students or top students) in every aspect. Blacks need to do the same and quit kissing ass or looking for acceptance. Weakness gets you nowhere.
20 years ago famu was selected as college of the year by the Princeton Review. There's a big difference between getting mugged on famu's side of town and getting mugged by famu students.
No Divide. They are 2 totally different college institutions. One is more popular due to sports and the other is not? That is no ones fault. Why is this even a discussion?
I know one thing, "English" and the ability to string together complete thoughts and verbalize them AIN'T the strong suit of either student body interviewed - yeesh!😖😖😖😖 #horrible #remedialenglish

Trust me, we don’t like any of you.
How was your experience after graduating? Was finding a job an issue?
Good job A. Like that's a real problem. Hell that's why i didn't even consider applying to FSU, I thought I'd feel outta place

Good discourse
Helpful video
FSU/FAMU.........both schools have their "grateness", their "biases", and, overall, the "perceptions of 1 another"
Sounds Like Texas A&M and Prairie View A&M University.
That is no type of comparison what so ever lol.
Tbh, this isn’t the only place where an HBCU and a very known PWI don’t rlly see eye to eye. PVAMU and Texas A&M also have this problem.

How did you march for one school while attending the other? I'm a transfer student and want to learn more about the process of getting into the band.
MAD World Productions you can’t do that anymore FAMU doesn’t allow it anymore after the whole hazing incident
@@jjayjae_ that statement seems very dated so I hope things have chsnged

Yall should’ve asked Tevin 💀💀he goes to FSU
He didn't answer the phone lol
20 years ago, pizza delivery was unavailable at FAMU because so many delivery carriers were getting mugged.
20 years ago🤣 y’all can’t let nun go
DimplefaceDee what if somebody said slavery was hundreds of years ago just let it go?
Jaylan Green you sound REAL dumb why would you bring up slavery that’s real disrespectful

Florida State ain't top 25 shit! UF is way better than FSU academically and financially
They're talking about the public college ranking
FAMU SUCKS HOW CAN YOU COMPARE THE TWO THATS LIKE A 1999 HONDA CIVIC VS A 2022 G Wagon
Nah man
I am still driving my 1999 Honda Civic. What's the matter with you!?
