Howard admin have the nerve to threaten students' attendance at their crappy campus because they are protesting for BETTER living conditions. How about issuing refunds for room fees?

[OrioleBeagle]

Where is the city health department and building inspectors? These buildings need to be condemned and the students should be housed in hotels until things are rectified. Why isn't the federal government investigating the misuse of funds?

[vanityposh]

My daughter will NOT go there this fall!

[pinkakagreen]

All this money they pay. Get the shit together

[ngm]

I’ll bet the Administration’s are living large.

[BrianJohnson-dupj]

Unacceptable!!! Get you shit together Howard!

[STEVEVARVOUNIS]

Get a bunch of people together that have health problems and sue them (and don't let anyone kill you while you are organizing)

[oxemediaTV]

See how Howard do black students and it’s their own smh

[terranceali]

Where is the celebrities that talk about how good Howard is 🤔

I think corruption is an issue at Howard. Didn’t they sell a few student dorm buildings a while ago? Students were having issues finding housing. Wasn’t there a financial aid embezzlement problem a few years ago as well? Now this. Smh

My daughter went on a college tour here when she was in 9th grade. She said she don’t live w roaches, she’s not about to learn with them.

Whoever is running this institution needs to resign immediately. The conditions of those dorms are deplorable. Those students need to be refunded their tuition, and HU needs to implement renovations ASAP!.

Many years ago I really wanted to attend this University. I went to the polar opposite...

[duwaine]

One of the dirtiest low budget campus I ever been on... They get so much money all the money only goes to the top..

[natereyes]

Hey HOWARD my daughter withdrew from your Institution August 26th and returned back to California on August 28th. We are waiting for the 5k we are due since she withdrew by September 3rd! SMH

Sadly, most of our HBCU’s are about the sports, fraternities, sororities, marching bands and homecoming.

[tadiafoster]

This school gets so much money… what are they doing with it?

[elizabetholiviaclark]

1:45 They have the temerity to reduce student complaints about uninhabitable living conditions to a "point of view" as though their health is a negotiable matter.

[curiousone]

Mold is pernicious and hard to get rid of. My dad is a hoarder, so I would know -- once it takes over, you can never get rid of it (as the student said, it grows back immediately). I hope these students get a vigorous response to this problem and the campus does more to solve the issue. I mean, this is HOWARD???? What are they taking out in loans or having to pay in tuition to get THIS kind of treatment? What a disgrace. This country is wrecked.

The admin are preparing their students for the real world after they graduate and can't get a job and have to live in a tent.
