Are you serious?!?!?!?!?!? I hope you are just joking. As a proscpective student of FAMU, I realized ya'll do not lead the nation in grades. Ya'll are very far from it. Shoot, if that was the case simply look at ya'lls admissions minimums. Also, ya'll don't lead in sports...didn't a whole bunch of ya'lls titles get retracted earlier this season? I remember reading in the newspaper about all the problems ya'll were having. And it wasn't just a page, it was the whole damn section. And about ya'll having the best band....hmmm I don't think so. I mean it's good and all but I think BCC has a better band, but they don't get recognized because their school is so small. You think other HBCU's copy off of FAMU?!?!?!? When was FAMU founded???? In 1887...hmm...there were so many other HBCU's that were founded before that time, so you need to go on with that statement. I'm not even going to lie, FAMU is a good school, but it ain't all of what you are claiming in this post.

Appreciate the shout out. Like your ****. That is a good thing in moderation. I have not bee to FAMU in a while. I do know the band is bad, we are tops in Pharmacy and the S.B.I. (School of Bus.). Also when I was there, FAMU was in Time magazine for most scholar students. We beat out Harvard several years. Now we know that schools are made up of many. So we are speaking in general here. Half my family went to BCC. My brother graduated from there. The only thing their band beat us in are the gold girls. I give that credit. On the rest, it is all joking. We did it when I was there and brothas from other schools partied with us and viceversa. Just in fun. If you want to go to the best though, pick what is best for you. I can only be proud of my almamater. If it was not for FAMU, I would not be alive today. Have a most Blessed Day, Sis!! "God" Bless! Sincerely

I really hope you are not looking into attending FAMU anymore! You should have pride in your future college rather than shine negative light on it. So like I said, I hope you have found another college choice. First of all, newspapers are going to blow situations out of proportion merely to draw greater attention to the issues. They don't always reflect schools in the best light. You do not attend FAMU so it is impossible for you to understand exactly what is occuring. It's clear you don't quite understand the goals set out by the founders of FAMU. FAMU was created to give African-Americans a chance to better themselves. At FAMU, mediocre students, as well as several exceptional students, are often alotted opportunities that may have been unreachable anywhere else, thus the lower admissions standards. If you really want to attend a school you should look into its origins, and what the school stands for. U shouldn't look at a school solely at face value, otherwise you will definitely miss out on several great opportunities.

Umm, no offense, but I said I was a perspective student..meaning that FAMU was one of my choices. I attend Hampton, but I wasn't trying to downplay ya'lls school, I was simply responding to the statements made by heman7.

pretty much... i got much respect for FAMU, but that dude was just making it seem like it is the holy grail... FAMU is a great school, as is Hampton, Howard, Skegee, and A&T... but it's not the cathedral of HBCUs as ol' dude is making it... i really didn't see any harm in Jia's post personally...
