– I appreciate that. Desi. Hey, everyone. Before coming to Morgan State University, I had no idea what HBCU was, at least not culture wise. Coming from New York, there aren’t any HBCUs in the area. Thankfully, I chose Morgan State University where I was able to learn more about the HBCU experience and also learn more about myself. Being part of the Construction Management program has been a huge boost to my future. Students within this major are fortunate enough to have professors who have years of experience within this industry. Also, the dean of the school is very active, giving us what we need to succeed. All of the classes are held in a newly built center for the Built Environment and Infrastructure Studies. Our program even has an organization which helps students find jobs, internships and experience. It connects them with professionals who are looking for new grads or undergraduate students. This program is truly set up to help you succeed. Morgan also allows students to express their creativity, have fun, and network in environments that are catered towards their interests. There are numerous organizations on campus that host great events such as talent shows, business expos, poetry slams, movie nights, parties, and everything else under the sun. Morgan has helped me become the person that I am today, connecting me with people that I would’ve never met back at home. I’ve grown in every aspect of my life and I appreciate everything that I’ve experienced. Hopefully you choose Morgan and are able to do the same. Back to you, Desi.
– I couldn’t have said it better myself, Mark. There’s no question Morgan has a great balance of rigorous academics, civic engagement, and tons of social activities, creating a great atmosphere for Morgan students to foster meaningful connections and make truly memorable college experiences. Thanks for sharing your experience, Mark.
