Where are you from? Who introduced you to HBCUs?*
Plaquemine, Louisiana.
2
Why did you choose an HBCU over a pwi?*
I chose to go to Grambling because of the culture of the HBCU and for a chance and opportunity to be away from home to get the real college experience.
3
What is the story of your "experience" at Your HBCU given its heralded status as a stellar and prestigious institution?*
I chose to go to an HBCU because of its history and culture and actually attended along with 3 high school friends. I have a great respect for HBCUs.
4
"First time" experiences at your HBCU?*
Actually grew up going to and attending football games at Southern University but never had a desire to attend. Going to GSU was a great experience for me to get out on my own and meet people from other areas.

Professor Daigs business law. Taught me to be confident and to stand up.
