The college experience is naturally different for students of color, especially for the women within this group, depending on where they choose to study. Glossmagazineonline wants to know:
HBCUs the best place for African American women to receive their education?
What are the differences between attending a HBCU and a traditional college or university?
What do students gain or miss out on by attending one or the other?
Glossmagazineonline is posing these questions to you. Have you attended a historically black university or college, or a traditional institution, or both?
What do you see as the differences, similarities, gains and losses for attending one or the other – or both?
Please post your responses here! Next month we will continue this discussion, and include some of your thoughts and experiences in the discussion on Glossmagazineonline.com

Actually, I went to a Big Ten University, which is not considered a HBCU. For graduate studies, I decided to attend a HBCU. Most people, including some of my own race (African American), believe this is completely backwards. However, as I have gotten older and grown wiser, I realize the socioeconomic pitfalls we as a people face. African Americans are the most powerful spenders in the world. However, we never spend with our own. I see going to a HBCU as a privilege and honor, to walk the same steps my ancestors have.
Most HBCUs have been deemed unorganized and lack the adequate educational tools needed. The problem is deeper than what appears to the natural eye. Often times, successful alumni graduate and never look back to donate money or gifts. Therefore, as the school dilapidates the bills pile up. Who comes to the rescue?
What a great site, how do you build such a cool site, its excellent.
