To make this short: the students are the reason why the school still looks somewhat good, everyone here is very driven and motivated.

The buildings: many of them are new so if you are in a tour ask to see buildings such as Douglas, the Library, the Towers dorm and many others because many times they will only show you the new dorms and buildings where you'd probably not spend most of your time anyways.

The professors: the newer ones are more open to different teaching methods that create a better learning environment. For example I had one teacher named Ms. Perkins who taught through discussion with the class and sat with us in a circle, we had actual conversation to understand the course rather than just reading slides and I've learned so much in her class alone. Then there are professors who have been there for quite a while who have gotten "comfortable" with their teaching methods and refuse to budge. For example if you have Dr. Ron Manuel run! Teachers like him refuse to understand that there is more than one way to teach something. The problem is there is such a low amount of professors for certain courses at Howard that many times you will be forced to take some of these professors.

The President: Our current president is the best and actually cares about his students. Although there are still a lot of troubles at Howard, it sort of feels like Obama's first terms where he did a lot of good but had to clean up a lot of Bush's mess- that's kind of where we're at right now.
