As a proud graduate of Florida A & M Univeristy, I wholeheartedly agree.
From Essence -
At PWIs, you may have an African-American professor or advisor whom all the Black kids love and leverage as a resource. At an HBCU, you’re surrounded by a community who makes you feel like you’re smart, talented and valuable every day. That type of genuine love – even if save for four years in your lifetime – creates a sense of self-worth and confidence that you can’t get anywhere else.

PWIs = Predominantly White Institutions
HBCUs = Historically Black Colleges and Universities
