Hey wassup Dwight, been a minute, hope all is well, I think us business men trying to get business done go through our moments and seasons.
All our Black Colleges are awesome and everything thing Good comes from God, it's people that..., if You feel me.
I thought this was a good thing and of course You know how us proud Alumnus do, but also we don't knock other HBCU's and on the other hand we as a people cut jokes, but all in fun and humor. I think everyone should be proud of their schools and I think it's a good thing we folk as Yourself want to take the initiative. Trust me, when things go wrong at our schools, plenty of folk respond, hopefully with tact.
I pray that what happened with Morris Brown will be solved soon, if You recall the money scandals via the President and one of her staff, I was reading about that again the other day.
I can go on and on, but hopefully the gist of what I'm trying to say is understood here. Also we are all human, even those who rate our schools and all of our schools have their positives, negatives as well as outstanding points.
Hey I just happen to be a Rattla, my sister is going to BCC, I'm proud of her and BCC has her awesome historical history and what she had to over come to be where it is today, but... Me and Sis will be going at it, Lol! Not just in football, but she is there for a music sholarship.
Again I hope You feel where I am coming from.
Hey if someone went to Tuskegee, great school, but I will debate FAMU against her in fun and jest all day... And lets not be playing spades! Lol! I am a spadologist and I did state earlier, all good gifts come from God (^;^)
