All Universities and All Black Universities

When it comes to Black Universities, people automatically assume that you must be black to attend. If your not black and you plan on attending, the first question people ask is "why a black school?" I hate it! I am an African American but I don't attend a black university because I feel that they're looked down upon by EVERYONE! Sure you'll get a good education on African American history, but to a certain extent I feel like the education may get pushed a little too far. I would hate to be in class listening to a lecture on how much "the white man" let "my people" down way back when. Racial discrimination and racism is supposed to ne over right?

On one of many plus sides, black universities have a wonderful way of interacting their students with each other and the community through school involvement groups,  clubs, sororities and fraternaties, musical involvments, etc. I think other universities should definitely grasp this concept. Aside of students attending college to get an education, the experience should also be a fun way to meet new friends that will carry on to and through their future. Black Universities take more pride in the involvement of each other. The students come together to make their own organizations and clubs that are probably more interesting to the student life and more up to date on the styles of today. Student life should, in a way, be left to the students and not staff. After all, the students of today are what make tomorrow. In other universities, there are organizations and clubs that are run by the students, but the "love-bond" just isn't the same.
