So Howard Homecoming is the largest tradition on campus and also a national holiday. Howard is home to millions; like I said, when you come here, its family. The people you know are the people you grow old with, and homecoming is the time where you catch up with those you lost touch with and enjoy some of the flyest events. Homecoming may be one of those things we put entirely too much money into, but its all worth it.
Homecoming is a week long. We have classes, but its one of those times some teachers excuse our regular absence. We have Fashion shows, an RnB concert (this year we hosted Tyreese, Monica, Avant, and other artists), Comedy Shows....everything. (check out www.whbc830am.com for reviews of our past homecoming). The largest and most memorable event is yardfest when thousands of people congregate on the yard to enjoy a free concert. The best thing is how all the clubs in the city have parties for us and its just a whole week of crazy fun!

This is a goal to work towards. Howard is a place where you will be accepted, but you must work to get where you want to be. This is what makes Howard so great. Howard wont take it easy on you, but you should not be looking for the easy way. Howard is a challenge that only a few can ever truly accomplish. If you like Howard than get ready for a challenge.

Howard University is best known for self-expression. On my campus, you will find people from all over the world and different walks of life. Everyone expresses themselves differently; however, we are all similar in so many ways. People express themselves through their way of dress, speech, and culture. Howard University has brought so many people together and allowed them to connect. On Howard's campus, students feel free which helps to alleviate the daily stresses that many of us may have in our lives. I couldn't have chosen a better university to spend my four years!

My school is best known for producing successful black leaders in society. Some of Howard University' alumni include Thurgood Marshall, Charles Drew, and Debbie Allen. This legacy continues with the recent alumni here today like Adrian Fenty, David Oliver, and Taraji P. Henson. I would like to be a part of this great legacy.
