Wow there is so much to say about FAMU. First of all if you are looking for a quality education at an HBCU, FAMU is not for you. The school has a great environment including a nice campus (nice weather,landscaping) and nice people. The only exception is that the gangster ghetto Floridians who come here for a social life, may start fighting or have a "shoot out in the cafe". Most students who go to school here are from Florida. If you look at the educational statistics for secondary school in this state you will understand everything I am about to say, quite clearly. A high percentage of students at FAMU are uneducated and ignorant to anything outside of the southern Black community. If you come here from the north you will feel a jolt back into the 1930's, when Black people did not have the opportunity to learn. During elections they all claimed to be democrats, yelling Kerry Kerry, because he will "give money to black people". All they want is a free handout because clearly if you ask them who Colin Powell, Condeleeza Rice, or Kofi Annan is…they won't know. Which clearly means they know nothing about politics. Another problem would be their terrible english. Ebonics? No way! Their language makes Ebonics look like common english. Anyway, basically the school molds itself to the academic level of these students. The work I do here now, I did in late middle school and the sad part is these kids still cant pass. Most of them do not even want a better life, they just want fast money and a sorry $30,000 a year. This school is a big after high school hangout. Everything is about clothes, music, and cars. Speaking of which, the in-state students pay about $1600 a semester for tuition and get about $6000 in aid. Now you know what these sorry students who have never had anything do….buy cars, Sean John, and expensive cell phones. Do Not Waste Money and Come here. If you are a Floridian you need to go out of state so you can learn, unless you are going to UF,FSU, or UM.
