<p>You’ll get more responses by posting this in the Parents Forum, and by having a title that says something like “Would like info about African American’s experiences at these universities.”</p>
<p>Since not too many black students go to those colleges, I suggest also posting a similar thread in college search and selection and college life.</p>
<p>I’m black, and only know one black person who went to any of the colleges that you list. A friend’s niece attended St. Joseph, graduating several years ago. The niece had needed a small, nurturing college because she was a troubled young woman with a spotty academic record and major family problems. That she was able to graduate from college reflects well on the university. That’s all I know, however, about her experience.</p>
