I tell others that school feels as if I never left home considering I grew up in a big city. There is so much to do but leaves each person with choices to do many things. With that being said, you eventually learn to make proper decisions that affect your future. Going to Howard gives you the opportunity to transition from dependency to independency. You will learn to be your own person and learn to make sacrifices that you can apprecitate and be grateful for.

When I brag about my school, I always tell my friends about Howard being "the real HU" because we have a rival with Hampton university because they claim to be "the real HU", but they were called Hampton Institute before they changed it to a university. Meanwhile, Howard was always called Howard University. I also brag about Howard being the "black Harvard" and about our homecoming every year. Our homecoming is the biggest event that happens throughout the school year, and people from all states come just to get a taste of the the Howard experience.
