Howard University has an esteemed tradition of preparing many future leaders of industry, politics, art, etc... It is one of the shining stars of the Historically Black Colleges and Univeristies.

They're asking how you see yourself adding to this reputation and track record.

Why are you reposting the same question? Here's how I responded elswhere

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!
