I've said this for a while that HBCU alums that don't give back but complain about their HBCU every chance are "T-shirt wearers"
A Large Percentage of HBCU Graduates are “Shirt wearers” of their institutions.
A good friend of mine, co-alum (and now Frat brother) posed a question on Facebook recently asking “What Are Some Things Unique to the HBCU Experience?” Let me start by saying the majority of the responses were great, meaningful and lighthearted. But the following responses prompted this piece:
Dealing With Financial Aid
Student Loan acceptance
No guidance.
Well let’s break this down. I’ve attended 2 HBCUs as well as been employed by 2 PWIs. Financial Aid problems occur everywhere, and you can’t blame the school for not doing your FAFSA correctly. Same goes for Student Loan issues overall. And finally, closed mouths don’t get fed. Guidance doesn’t seek out those who need it, those who need it should have sought guidance. But moreover:
If you are the graduate of an HBCU and when asked about what made your experience unique and the first thing you utter out of your mouth is negative in fashion, I think it is fair at this point to refer to you as a “Shirt wearer” of your alma mater.
