With regard to a legacy essay, you might went to look up famous alumni and how HU graduates makeup a significant proportion of African American professionals. I graduated in 80, and 84 (from the medical school). Also I'll try to link a few sites you can get some historical perspective from. Good luck!

for some reason, howard is requiring that my brother FAX them a copy of his social security number before they make a decision on his application. Mind you, my brother sent his application in before the Nov. 1 deadline. And it is just now that they are asking for this information. Does anyone know if this is standard practice?

Before just faxing over an SS number I would give them a call to make sure of the situation

yeah, my dad is livid and refuses to fax it. they are making a trip to the school this tuesday. i dont understand what the deal is. what if we didnt live in maryland? would they then refuse to make an offer. pretty lame

^^ I would definitely call to confirm that this info is necessary. Seems odd to me..
