I know I posted this question in another forum but I want to know what the peeps in here think. OK...I always wanted to go to Howard University but recently I have been accepted to a white prestigious school here in california. My fellow classmates and educators except me to attend this other school all because of it's name. Certain individuals feel that i shouldn't choose an HBCU over an "Ivy" type but I feel that I always have graduate school. So why not be in a better environment for undergrad around what I am familar with. However, I still have that opportunity. So, if you were in my shoes which one would you choose?
And please don't say "Follow Your Heart" it's good advice but it doesn't help.
So HBCU or IVY?
If you're wondering I am talking about Stanford. I know it's not a real Ivy but California peeps tend to think it's the Ivy of the West.

I am doing an Critical Research Paper on this topic but I altered my Topic just a little ...
Are Predominantly white Institutions better for African American students than HBCU's? ..... I have chosen a side but I am a little nervous to see what my teacher will say because she attened a HBCU and a PWI ...
You again? Didn't I tell you to go home? Maybe I grew... in more ways than one.
And what are you some kind of gangerbanger? What is this? You're going to a white school. A wannabe Ivy League at that and you're trying to **** on me? N*gga I'm from Compton. I **** wannabe crab *ss n*ggas like you.

Shut up. You didn't get in. And who are you? Why are you still allowed to talk? They should have minimum IQ requirements for anybody to speak. Especially to me.
Well then you better practice talking to yourself because when it comes to IQ, you're in a class of your own. The lowest class. Like approaching negative infinity from the left, low.
It's cool. I can see why you though that when I started that what's so great... topic and whatever. The only reason I phrased it like that is because I really was deciding and needed some feedback so I needed a post people would respond to. And the feedback was awesome, except for that Bryant idiot.
