Dorm Wars
It’s almost that time. You know, when friends become dorm enemies. When the Annex and Quad girls secretly plot against each other. When Drew and Carver plan out the domination of the other. When Meridian, Slowe and the Towers break out their old moves and try to strive for the gold…or to place. The time where everyone wears their colors boldly and proudly; Yellow, Purple, Green, Red, Sky Blue, and Black.
ResFest is sizzling in the air and the anticipation is rising more and more each day. April 9th is the day of the 2010 ResFest Step Show where the dorms all participate in showing who is the most precise, accurate, and hypest step team. During the week of April 2nd to the 9th, the dorms battle each other through numerous activities. There will be dance competitions, swim, football, and jump rope competitions. Each dorm goes H.A.M (Hard.Asa.Mofo), striving to win the gold medal in each category but the Step Show goes the hardest.
The Quad and Drew hall has let Howard University know that this year’s ResFest Step Show is something to look forward. March 8th, 2010, the Harriet Tubman Quadrangle and Drew Step Team for Resfest 2010 performed in the Blackburn Bowling Alley for CEACS Week (College of Engineering, Architecture, and Computer Sciences). Drew Hall performed first, stepping hard enough for dust to fly in the air.
The Quad performed next with precision and attitude, doing their infamous Aw Yea Step. With moves that made the crowd laugh, and quick shout out’s to the Quad and Annex girls, Drew Hall Step Team had won the mini competition, although the Quad killed them with their battle steps ending with the ladies in splits.
This friendly competition between the brother/sister dorms let people know that this is not a game. This is serious and whoever wins ResFest gold medal will be top dog. The dorms are on the prowl, and so it begins. Get live and get in the ResFest spirit!!!!

Howard University Carnival
Born in New York, Jamaica in my blood; this is the life of a second generation West Indian. Do not call us Yankees or Natives. Yes, we are U.S. born but we are what our families are and that is a true West Indian. Something we enjoy most is Carnival time. Back at in [...]

Valentines for the Heartless
hat beloved time of year is coming around in less than a week. I can say that I am less than enthusiastic about it. I’m not one of those anti-Valentine, anti-love or anti-romance type of people; however, I do hate the fact that this day is a constant reminder of the person I am and what I do not have…
Got Visitation???
“Visitation” one of the most dreadful words on Howard University’s campus and among many other HBCU’s. For those who may not know “visitation” can also be described as the set of rules for bringing a guest into your dorm. Most students almost feel like they are being punished. “Visitation” is frowned upon by most students…
The State of Howard
Howard has evolved into a whole lot of disorder and a whole lot of potential wrapped up in a giant tangle, and it’s hard to sort the good from the bad. Howard has always had administration problems and money problems, but never to the extent that they have reached now…
New Year New Reputation
I always knew that your reputation is important. But it wasn’t until yesterday that I realized how much it is important to me. I was having a really good conversation yesterday with a guy ( I will call him. Mr. Potential), and he was telling me about how he had been interested in me for awhile. He told me how he went up to different guys who he knows have been around me at least a little bit, and was asking what kind of girl I am…

Excuse Me House Nigga
A house nigga, in these times, is an individual of the black Diaspora who values the establishment over black culture. For example, a house nigga carries an umbrella on a sunny day to prevent themselves from getting darker because American society says the lighter you are, the more socially acceptable you will be. A house nigga is so caught up in chasing equality that they overlook their own people’s potential supremacy…
