MTV's True Life: I Go to an All Black College Posted on 01-13-2005

I was on mtv.com and saw in casting call that this topic is soon going to be an episode, and just wanted everyone who comes to this site to know about it (and possibly give sum one the idea of considering this?) True Life: I Go To An All Black College Originally African American colleges were created to ensure equal educational opportunities for black students. Today, many of these schools stand out academically, have developed unique cultures and are even sought out by non-black students. Do you attend a predominantly African American college and feel your school has a different culture than most "typical" colleges? Are you part of an upcoming event that is unique to your university? Are you part of a sorority, fraternity or sports team and have a rivalry with another black university? Are you one of the few non-black students at an all black college? If you appear between the ages of 18 and 28 and one of these scenarios describes you, e-mail True Life at college@mtvstaff.com. Please include name, address and phone number. Now, who would actually consider this? (I wish I could, but Im still in High School :cry: )

Ohhhh man oh man oh man. My school would love this. Shameless self-promotion on MTV. Not only are we one of the best HBCUs, but we're the only all male as well.... Every Morehouse student should've signed up for this.

MTV did a good job showcasing NCCU on "Crashing In" in 2002. There apparently are some HBCU grads on the programming teams at MTV.

I saw this on Mtv's website also. I like the idea...Gives a good one hour look into the portrayal of black college life...and would be of good quality. Unlike that piece of sh*t of a show known as College Hill. :roll: As far as would I actually participate in it....I dont know. But I think it is only appropriate that one of the hbcu's they choose to showcase be Florida A&M University....we are the largest black college in the country.

Can't be mad at self-promotion. We've already been on TV, but I'm sure MTV would love to come back. If not, then they should visit a "college town" like Tallahassee, Orangeburg, or Greensboro.
