ya’ll airing all our dirty laundry!!! lol well oh well only we know whats its really like here. we talk mess but if any one gangs up on us we all run to eachothers aid lol. I love my AUC fam =) Spelmanite 2012 wonder what happened to these freshies?? they’re like graduating this year..wow
I graduated from Clark in 08 and I would change it for anything! Yea, some of things you are going to complain about, but once its over, you will miss everything!!! I cant complain too much about the AUC, because I met my husband there who went to Morehouse! YAY AUC! Missing my school!!
Spelman is ranked the #1 HBCU in America by US News & World Report. You can’t go wrong by attending Spelman. But before you Head south you might want to work on your writing skills and grammer, because they are seriously entrenched in EBONICS! Which is Truly Ignorant! So before you complain about what’s negative, check yourself first.
What’s up with the youngsters complaining about Our HBCU’s being Ghetto? Anywhere a predominately Black Population exists, they are going to be referred to as Ghetto! The term is an outgrowth of Nazi Germany hoarding Jews into one sector of the city because they were considered second class citizens. We must stop referring to our communities as Ghettos. Ivy League White schools produces more Criminals than any HBCU. Check Wall Street Fraudsters, Enron, Bernie Madoff, etc. They are the real thugs
OMG… i move into Spelman tomorrow (( Manley )) . I’ve found this video in fall of last year… never really gave it any thought, but now…. hhhhmmmmm
wow…informative…
Let me help you out. AUC does stand Atlanta University Center. Atlanta University was a Seperate School. CAU was called Clark College and in 1988 AU and CC merged to form THE MIGHTY CAU.
Look you cant hope where the school is. The schools where there before the ghetto was. And dont think for one minute that you are better then the people in the area cuz changes are your not. I am a Clark Atlanta University C/O ‘12
Because Clark Atlanta University is not the AUC it it only is apart of the AUC. Are talking Atanta University??? I just finished my frist year at Clark Atlanta University and I would not trade it for the world. Because that is so much history here that you can get from any other school.
from my experience just about every HBCU is going to be what youre not expecting. Just visit any school you plan on attending. Im starting @ Spelman in the fall and the fact that people say its ghetto doesnt really matter to me. Im not from the suburbs anyhow and i used to attend Grambling (missin it). : )
the AUC is the Atlanta university center. it consits of CAU, Spelman, Morehouse, Morris Brown && ITC
AUC stands for Atlanta University Center
I’m wondering, if it is called Clark Atlanta University, then why do they call it AUC, instead of CAU?
Graduated from Morehouse in ‘05…I see things haven’t changed much…but I promised there Isn’t a better place on the planet than the AUC. I’m in my last year of medical school in nebraska, and if you thought you were treated like trash in the AUC??? just wait until you try higher education at a caucasian establishment…The AUC is what it is, as long as you know who you are, you won’t have any problems…and move off campus sophomore year…fareal
they are all in the same area the hood.
okay.. wait so spelman they say is ghetto or clark atlanta? I’m so confused haha I’m thinking about going to spelman but if they says its ghetto..im second guessing
cold showers.!?!?
I am a graduation senior at Clark Atlanta and Ive been here all four years. Everything is what you make it. Yeah its in the ghetto and all dat, thats why u visit a college before you attend it. So i knew what i was getting myself into. I am a communications major and i love it here. im glad i came here
I like this video because it gave some pros and cons. I stay with my grandmother just outside the Westend and cant wait to get to Clark Atlanta. i know that what they are saying is true but the real world is just the same.
wow.. lol @ they got some crackheads here.. some dumb ppl.. lol.. thats true..i got to morehouse and it is a couple of fools..lol
i feel you on dat.. cuz im at morehouse and our showers stay cold
I know this is super late but I graduated from Spelman and it is definitely worth it. True, the AUC in general has its downfalls but trust me, it is no different than the real world. I am now working out of the country and I thought that the minor difficulties in the AUC were bad…wrong! Compared to the real world, it really is nothing. I love Spelman and value the experiences I had there. I wouldn’t change it for anything.
ok seriously this is ridiculous I am from the suburbs as well and I dont know if im going to be able to make it at Clark I am not sure if that is the place for me any more maybe I should go to GSU…. cold showers, i have all these loans im takin out, nd crackheads wtf
what is the name of the song you playaed at the beginning of the video
First of all you can be in the middle of ghetto and know how to protect yourself. It’s a word for it…Oh yes, I remember street smarts. Remember first of all, if you don’t feel so safe, why would you attend?
