HOWARD U. HOMECOMING RECALLED
Howard University's many schools and colleges offered talent pools for us to use, freely accessible, in our various student undertakings.
One year, 1974, while I was Howard University Homecoming Chairman, architecture students constructed a geodesic dome that engineering students electrified. An accounting student and staff was our treasurer. The art, parade, floats, bands were our Fine Arts students' bailiwicks . Journalism students wrote up and broadcasted our "Coming Home " activities in 1974, etc. And so on.
Each part was played by persons with experience, expertise. Looking back , I now know how blessed we were to be so richly ensconced in such talented, conspicuous glory; since its kind doesn't exist away from alma mater, I was shocked to discover, in the outside world with black people, whose interests are often scattered, peeled, randomly.
