There are so many different forms of education in America but one unique experience that Black college students opt for is that of attending an HBCU.
An HBCU is a historically Black college or university. Any college that isn t an HBCU is considered a PWI, or predominantly white institution.
There are major differences between the two types of schools that account for why some young Black students would rather attend an HBCU. Fayetteville State University is a public HBCU that was founded more than 150 years ago.
Fayetteville State University senior Ashley Stewart originally attended a PWI, where she says she felt less significant.

When the cloud of COVID-19 lifts and the long-shuttered Fox Tucson Theatre reopens to audiences and artists, Executive Director Bonnie Schock imagines there will be an outflowing of emotion from her staff and audiences filling the nearly 1,200-seat historic theater.
âThe push to get back there, it feels Herculean some days,â said Schock, who has led the Fox through the pandemic. âGetting to that point is going to be an extraordinary emotional release, and I think that will be true for audiences, too.â
But that day wonât come for months. Schock, who took over the Fox just days before city and state officials ordered businesses to close, said she anticipates it will be late summer or early fall before the Fox will return to live concerts.
