The Beginning

Howard has always been my first choice. Through research and information given to me about the school, I easily discovered there was no other HBCU or even SCHOOL like Howard. Its legacy and drive in all of its students was and still is very attractive to me. I’m nothing but excited to leave my mark here and after attending The Real HU for only a week, I have nothing but high expectations and promise for this institution and what I’ll be able to accomplish while attending during these next four years. From the routine early mornings and breakfasts in The Annex, to unexpected afternoon natural disasters, along with the bustle and daily grind of Howard University students, I’m realizing that this school is full of practice, spontaneity, and ambition, all of which I am ecstatic to be a part of. So far, Howard has met my expectations and I’m sure it will continue to meet my expectations.

I expect Freshman Seminar to open my eyes to the history and legacy of Howard as well as the importance of the various skills we are learning from the lectures each week. I believe the lecture about Africans from the homeland and their migration. I have always found or history interesting and I think Howard University’s freshman seminar class will be a great environment for me to learn about it. Freshman Seminar’s goals will allow me to state my personal goals more clearly. I plan to be an exceptional student both academically and socially, and I think Freshman Seminar will help me with this focus.
