Or would it be interesting to see if you would get stared at by the black students where you're at least the only white person attending the college?

Not even...its like affirmative action. If you do good, they will look at you as the minority and pick you because of it. You also get to hang out with black people :D. Be that one white kid in the group of blacks. Be so cool

Don't do it. Go to a good, nearby, and majority White college if you are White.

Really? He might get harassed again and again by other students there who don't think he belongs.

Only if you are the guy who has a calculator in his shirt pocket. I've known a few (white) friends who have done so, and all was good.

Depends how comfortable you are with black people. I would not be comfortable there. I would be in an all Hispanic school though because I grew up with a lot of them...there were like 4 black people in my district lol

So a school that's 99% black and 1% scared sh*tless, sounds perfect.

Sadly, most colleges might as well be "white" colleges for all the representation minority groups get there.

I've been in a situation like this when I was younger, I went to a summer camp that was for inner city kids only I didn't live in the inner city, my dad just dumped me and my brother there as a babysitter. We were the only two white kids there. My brother got beat up a lot and I was too young for them to mess with so I didn't really catch much **** But racism exists in every color. So no I don't think it would be a good idea.

Not a dumb idea at all, although kind of a strange one to me.

If I saw a college advertised as an "all black college" I wouldn't even give it a second thought to be honest. Not because I hate black people but because I would feel like I'd stand out like a sore thumb and it'd be very awkward I imagine. But hey, if a white person really wanted to try it out and help support diversity by going to an all black college than more power to him/her.

If your just looking at the school simply because it has the most black people and not choosing the school with the best classes for your future career then that would be dumb. If not, go for it.

Sounds like a bad idea tbh, you want to go somewhere with a lot of racial diversity so you can have an insight into lots of different ways of life and stuff.

Had a friend who got a minority scholarship by attending an all-black school. Tuskegee to be specific. Worked out for him, although spent most of his time in Auburn when not in school. He was at least very easy to find in the graduation crowd.

When they were created, it was out of necessity since black people would have had a near impossible time getting a colledge education any other way. Now they are just termed HBCU(historical black college universities) but they are not all black because that is against the law.

What would that make an all black college?

That would make it racist and against the law. Luckily for us, there is no such thing as an all black college, only a HBCU.Last time I checked(which admittedly was 1995 when I was about to go to college) HBCUs tend to have a 10-15% non-African American student population.

Just about the same my H.S had. There were one, maybe three "white" people. I know one of the dudes name was Giovanni. Probably the only cool "white" guy out of them. Other two were one other dude and a female. They didn't have the greatest time with the other students to say the least....

I know a white guy who went to Morehouse. Good kid. I think he wishes he was black though. i wouldn't do the opposite. When I was in 4th grade my mom started teaching at a school and she made me go there. My old school was like 50% black, 30% white and she told me, "now there's going to be a lot of white kids at this school." I shrugged it off but I remember walking into the cafeteria before the school bell rang on the first day and it was a sea of like 300 white kids and I immediately did a 180 and stood in the hallway to process what I had seen. Eventually I walked in and started scanning around and found one kid who looked like he was mixed. He was sitting by himself reading EGM and started talking to me about this crazy game called Mortal Kombat when I sat by him. Good stuff. My experiences were good at the school but I'd never willingly choose a situation like that again.

I go to an HBCU and there are white students there. They aren't the majority like there probably are at other schools but we do have a good amount They dont get looked at funny or treated differently at least i dont think so. Now of course it depends on how you feel around black people. Obviously if you have issues around black people you aren't going to like it but that's solely up to you. The people aren't racists for the most part and you have just as much of a chance to fit in as anyone else. Also why do people keep saying all black schools when there is no such thing they are called HBCU's or historically black schools but they are far from being all black.

I think the most important question to ask yourself is; "do I like black women?".

Well I attend Tuskegee University (black college) and there are a good deal of people that aren't black. They get along fine with everybody else. Even the white students get along with everybody. Don't listen to these people perpetuating stereotypes.
