I attended a PWI for law school and a State school for undergrad, and I wish I went to an HBCU. I think there is a stronger alum network and more support to help students succeed. Also, when large corporations are looking to hire diverse people, they don't look at PWI's. They go straight to HBCU's. If I could do it over, I'd change things, but I can't change my path. It is what it is.

On the bright side, I think if I went to an HBCU I would have ended up pregnant, so maybe it worked out for the best.

If more blacks went to HBCU's, they'd have a better sense of pride & community, but most of you are indoctrinated to believe white is right and that schmoozing with crackas is the key to success. But whatever, who am I to tell any buffoon how to spend their hard earned coonbucks.

Not all people go to the school they go to because of this but okay. I get what you're saying and partially agree.

When black people say things like this it breaks my heart. It really does.
