Now when I first came across this topic, there were 14 people who read it, and no one had replied, and I was glad. I was really hoping HIU folks wouldn't respond to it so it could show how truly ignorant and ridiculous the whole thread was in the first place. I understand its hard to let bullsh*t like this pass, but I think you all did what he wanted, which was to get upset and give feedback.
Clearly he is just a "Hater" :roll: , the same one that in another thread said he "hated" the 100 (FAMU's band). Now, he is tryin to get something serious started with an already heated rivalry.
The topic is not worth responding to. Dude has issues thats all, PLEASE PIRATES don't even give in to this foolishness any more, we're better than that!
^^thats what im sayin...just because you go to an expensive college dont mean your rich...cuz i be damned if people thought i was rich.
i worked my **** off to go to Hampton...and my parents arent paying a dime cuz i knew they couldnt afford it...im going on a 4-year Army scholarship and a few more scholarships to...
and NSUDizziac..i have been through wearing the same clothes a couple times a week, i have gone without eating, Im the one taking care of my family, i havent had AC in the summer or Heat in the Winter, but i dont live in the hood..i do live in the suburban area...living in the hood dont mean you are the only one who goes through that...EVERYONE can go through it...and we just got our $hit back in order...so dont go talkin about no one knows about the ghetto or the hood just cuz they going to an expensive a$$ school...we worked hard to deserve where we are going...how dare you try to say who someone is because of that....i think you should just shut ya mouth...and worry about ya own damn self
people please get past the sterotypes of the early 90's. We all know that everybody is not rich and come from wealthy families. (it never was and never will be like that). Does that mean that everbody that attend Howard, Morehouse, Spelman, and any other private institution are rich too. Just because Norfolk State is in the middle of the ghetto or hood does not mean that everybody there is poor and ghetto because its not like that. Its a lot of people that chose to attend Norfolk State because NSU had an edge over another school just like Hampton.
Private Institution = More, Public Institution = Less
Private does not = Rich, Public does not = Poor
Qt girl aint never lived in the ghetto you go to hampton!!!!! noone from hampton lived a ghetto she think cause she black she from the ghetto. her idea of a ghetto is 3 pieces of trash on the street in her "hood" (which is an upper middle class suburban area). :lol: :lol: :lol: actually go through something first like having to go weeks without food just eating oodles and noodles, or a house with no AC in the summer and no Heat in the winter. having to scrape up pennies just to go buy a bar of soap for the family. how about having to wear one pair of clothes twice in a week every week. or using string as a belt, or having to duck bullets on your way home from school. not being able to play outside because of shootouts in the hood.
I can just say one thing.... you went to Bethel.... just because you go to Norfolk NOW does not make you an expert on "Living in the Hood". get over your self... your wack... and you make your school look wack.. lol
Dang, at first I thought this post was sorta lame because it was a bunch of BS hating, but now we got other Pirates and other Spartans and even some OUTSIDERS (hu :roll: ) making this thing heated.
Thanks Spartan007 for pointing out the "stereotypes" about certain schools being rich or having wealthy students which goes far beyond the early 90's actually, it wasn't true then, and still isn't true. Hampton being so "bougie"- really not true. NSU being referred 2 as Pofolk State- not true. Both schools have folks who grew up in the suburbs as well as the hood or ghetto.
I don't believe there is a single HBCU where most of the students are wealthy or upperclass. I admit I didn't grow up in the "hood" nor the suburbs, but I grew up in the inner city in an all middle class black neigborhood, supportive and proud community, but we certainly weren't without financial problems at times too.
All private schools cost more because the school can't rely on state money or taxes. Remember that even at Hampton, 80% of the students are on SOME TYPE of financial aid, and peeps chose Hampton for their own personal reasons (I had many) and many are from the Northern states where there are no HBCUs.
I never met a rich person at NSU i have met rich people at HIU though and most of the people I have met thier parents pay for them to go to HIU and they drive super nice cars. Just cause I went to Bethel dont mean nothing high school aint based on if you can afford it. it is based on the zone Stupid. ause you went to phoebus dont mean you lived in the ghetto it is all about the zones baby get your mind right.

what the hell do you considered rich? are you rich becuase you drive a nice car, cuz i see some pretty nice cars in some pretty F*cked up hoods. or are you rich becuase u never had to worry about the AC in summer and heat in the winter, and bills being paid. my mom makes 6 figures, my best friends parents make 6 figures, so are we rich? i dont have a super nice car, my mom dont have a super nice car and my boy moms is pushin a ford escort, and he dont even have a car. oh yea and me and my boy go to NSU so if you consider us rich i guess NSU does have rich kids.

^^*cosigns
Since when does a nice car define how rich someone is? True, there are SOME students at HIU whose parents are well to do, but despite the myth its not close to the majority. I never grew up poor, but my parents never made a 6 figure salary either.
Seems to me Dizziac, you might be offending your fellow Spartans more so than us Pirates which was your goal :roll:

NSU has nearly 7,000 students, how many people do you know out of that. You make it seem the everyone at NSU is from the ghetto and dirt poor. NSU may not have any rich students, but a lot students who attend NSU come fro wealthy families.
What is rich to you. Are the people you met a Hamptom rich or wealthy. There is a differece, you know. Everybody who is rich is wealthy, but everybody who is wealthy is not rich. I consider a person to be rich when he/she is making millions and dont have to work for money, the money works for them.
By the way, rich and wealthy people take the advantage of financial aid and scholarships also, dont get it twisted. Dont think just because someone receives finanacial aid that they are poor and from the ghetto.

^^ You aren't the only one bruh. Like I said b4, 80% of students at HIU are on some type of financial aid, and depend on it at that. Im thinking, rich kids don't need financial aid, they can pay outta pocket, right :?: :roll:
