@partyof5 I stop responding to VANDEMORY1342 for obvious reasons.

And you make some valid points, those rankings are misleading and has caused many students to make bad decisions in name of elitism and prestige. The mayor of my city didn’t go to a very prestigious and highly selective school, my governor didn’t either, nor did the senators of my state, nor did so many other people I know who are highly regarded, very talented and ambitious.

For black students debating if they should enroll in a HBCU vs particular non-HBCUs it usually comes down to should they pursue prestige/notability as mainstream (white) society sees it or community/social life.

I know Howard graduates that are active official alumni members and they get communications all the time about fundraising, I guess you should reach out to the alumni office to make sure they have your contact information .
