Mother Tuskegee was the most beneficial aspect of my career life. The faculty and staff were caring, supportive and demanding. The students received a highly qualified education. Whatever you had to offer, you gained an abundance of love and professionalism in return. The campus was gorgeous and full of activities to accommodate your interests. As every other HBCU, we (alumnus) are proud and support the efforts of the university. We must demand better, living arrangements, qualified from the top to the bottom of the spectrum, to continue the legacy of pass generations and greater fir the future. If we all commit to do better toward our universities, we too can be greater than the others. Recruit, support, follow through and be engaged in the decision-making processes of your local and national alumni associations. I will forever love and commit to supporting Mother Tuskegee until I take my final breathe.

Tuskegee will really try your life, just as any HBCU will. Rude faculty and staff but you will find some great ones who will work with you. Most things are out of date and will break down and almost seem to never work again. But one thing I love about Tuskegee is that the students stick together. If you've never heard "Cs get degrees" before we apply it to everything. PS we consistenly run on CPT, if you don't know what that means you'll find out.

Tuskegee is a fine institution that continues to produce dynamic professionals in their respected fields of study. Alumni have a strong commitment to the rich history of Mother Tuskegee; often volunteering, donating, and attending Homecoming year after year! Once you become a Golden Tiger, you are apart of the family for life! I would highly recommend Tuskegee University without any reservation!
