Howard at 150

Howard University is celebrating its 150th anniversary today

Founded in 1867, Howard University is a private, research university that is comprised of 13 schools and colleges. Students pursue studies in more than 120 areas leading to undergraduate, graduate and professional degrees. Since 1998, the University has produced four Rhodes Scholars, nine Truman Scholars, two Marshall Scholars, over 60 Fulbright Scholars, 22 Pickering Fellows and one Schwarzman Scholar. Howard also produces more on campus African-American Ph.D. recipients than any other university in the United States. (HU’s www.howard.edu)

I’m So Glad

I remember my first trip to HU’s campus, staying in Drew Hall, standing in long registration lines, first class, first trip to King’s Dominion, heading to The Quad, dorm parties, mentors like Dr. Addison, first homecoming, the ‘89 protest, when the bookstore wasn't on Georgia Ave, the Punch Out, studying for finals, the nasty cafeteria food, the marching band playing Neck, when the football field was a dust bowl. I could go on but you get my point.

150 Years of Excellence in Truth & Service

This year’s Sesquicentennial celebration will recognize the historic milestones, achievements, and the positive impact the University has had since its founding in 1867. The University will use this opportunity to revive Bison spirit by engaging the community, alumni, faculty, students, and University stakeholders. https://150.howard.edu/
