Most Memorable Moment:
First walking on the campus of Bowie State College and just feeling the history, which I think many of us take for granted. Even though I was always someone who fought against being traditional, I have always thought that it was good that there were many who continued on with the traditions I feel that challenging traditions make them stronger.

High School: Baltimore Polytechnic in Baltimore, MO

Best Memories:
Being a "words" person, I hated being in a "math" based environment but it more than prepared me for college.
