Spelman College

Best decision I ever made. Hands down.

WOW! I get to review my alma mater!!! I LOOOOOVE Spelman. So much so that I am still around even after graduating back in 2010. As a former student and currently as a professor I can honestly say that I LOVE the legacy that Spelman is creating and I am thankful to be a part of such a historic institution.
OOOOOHHHHH Don’t you WISH! :-)

Pure excellence!

WOW. I can even review my Alma Mater on Unilocal.
I graduated from Spelman a little while ago (not in the 2000’s, but not when Jesus was still alive, either). To be very frank, I didn’t always like Spelman. I felt like I didn’t fit in, and I didn’t have a whole slew of friends (I have some accountability here, some of my isolation was self imposed).
As a grown woman, though, I now look back on my education and realize what Spelman was trying to do, and greatly appreciate it. I’ve also attended PWI’s and there are things that I learned at Spelman that I’m sure I wouldn’t have learned anywhere else. Those freshman orientation, ADW, and Sophomore Assembly classes, the convocations — yes I will be honest, I giggled and snickered while attending them, and thought they were a joke. NOW I GET IT, and I do appreciate those classes.
If you are thinking about attending Spelman — go. It’s worth it. Not to mention Spelman is one of the top ranked schools in many different categories (HBCU’s, Women’s colleges, private colleges, etc.).
If I could do it all over again, I would.
Make sure you get all you can out of the experience.

We attended the Spelman-​Morehouse 86^th Annual Christmas Concert.
It was so amazing how professional this program is performed!
We are also greatly thankful for the years of history and incredible ladies who have graduated and become talented and world changing individuals!
We thank God for Spelman!

Oh, don’t you wish you were a Spelmanite like me. Oh, don’t you wish you were a Spelmanite like me. Oh, don’t you wish you were a Spelmanite like me cuz we’re the oh so fine divas’ of the A.U.C!!!
Long live the Spelman Sisterhood. I bleed Spelman Blue blood. Ok, have to go now having Spelman withdrawal.

Definitely not a Spelman sister (I know, hard to believe…) though I humbly strive to meet their standards of eloquence and tenacity.
Held a booth promoting the Online Service Community I help run. Met a lot of great young ladies who felt encouraged/​potentially required to be engaged in community service. Lots of them with great ideas, all of which the school helped nurture their leadership in innovation. People were very friendly and welcoming of us on their campus, even introducing us to people who weren’t in the immediate vicinity.
Plus, Fried Chicken Wednesday is a campus wide holiday. Halleloo!

I have met quite a few strong, respectful women in Atlanta and when they tell me they are proud graduates from Spelman, I am not at all surprised.

My Spelman Sister :) speaks the truth. The greatest four years of my life — enriching, enlightening, educating and so much more. I couldn’t have asked for a better institution to mold such a smooth transition from little girl to young woman. I would go back and do it all over again if I could — «May God forever bind our hearts to thine» I LOVE YOU SPELMAN COLLEGE!

Spelman thy name we praise!
Oh the memories. These were some of the best years of my life. With a sister that went to Spelman I was already a little biased when it came time for me to apply to college. Here I was a freshman in the big city of Atlanta, but Spelman kept me safe with its gates except when I escaped to explore. I stayed in the best dorms, luckily. My learning and social experiences were balanced and I wouldn’t change them for the world.
