Response
Honestly, yes, I would attend Prairie View A&M University. I like the university building designs it provides everything needed for students under that certain department. It is reachable 24hrs a day, 7 days a week making it easier for students to complete things. PVAMU has great history that is the key to the school and the students, faculty and staff motivate each other to keep it alive. Another reason why I would attend is because it is an HBCU. I feel as though I fit right in. I feel like the university caters to our needs and are truly preparing us for the real world. I like how Prairie View during campus events alcohol isn’t permitted, at most colleges students turn to partying and drinking. My values from the list are teamwork, safety, and caring. I chose teamwork because I feel like nothing won’t be as good enough without help from classmates or advice. I chose safety because as a student I wouldn’t want to be on an unsafe campus or neighborhood. Caring because the professors should really care about and take time to make sure they succeed.
