Howard University Reacts to Obama's Win

[evansville70]

to all you people that voted for Obama all I can say is.......... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Heatshield]

Insane. How's that "hopey-changey" thing working out for you?

[MaribelLaReina]

[judomachine]

Man. One of my BEST HU freshmen year memories!

[Tallgeese003]

man all those people are dumb. I don't see what's so great about the man. He's all talk and no action and he'll stay that way. Anyway I disagree with his politics regarding Israel which is why I don't like the man.

I know that he WILL be PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES. I also know that a Black President is a major historical event in American History and will be an signifigant improvement in the morale of black people. We can't use racism as an excuse for why we aren't succdedding.

[divaday]

wow!

i didnt see this many people @ yardfest

[Krystyl18]

I tear up watching this video because this by far is the best remember I have from HU! There is no other place I rather have been then with my Bison sisters and brothers on the yard in the rain, celebrating such a historic moment.

[Divinity89]

HHHHHHHHHHH UUUUUUUUUU! Yes, there couldn't have been a better time for me to be a HU student than that night. I will NEVER EVER forget this experience!!!!!! OBAMA! YES WE CAN BUT YES GOD DID! Amen...

[MrSupasexi]

@Divinity89 what do you think now? lmao

[Divinity89]

@MrSupasexi I still feel the same.

[MrSupasexi]

@Divinity89 oh god. im sorry, i really feel for you if you still think that hes gonna bring change. please do thos country a favor by not voting.

[Divinity89]

@MrSupasexi Regardless of if I believe he can still bring change or not, my sentiments at that point in time were much deeper than that. This was a historical triumph for the African American community and symbolized WAY more than just political victory. Clearly you're ignorant to this so you can kindly kick rocks...thank you and have a good night :o)

[lovelydiva06]

Wish i was there, definetly a great time to be a student at Howard U!!

[cb1913]

I remember marching across D.C. against racial profiling...and praying at the flag pole after 9/11... And now to see my HU fam CELEBRATING A NEW DAY with the election of Obama, I get a tear. No one but an Alum of the greatest institution in the world would understand how our hearts feel when we see HU, hear HU, or touch HU.

"I'm so glad...I went to Howard U!"

[HUbestalum]

You are so right. I teared up myself. There will always be a special place in my heart for the REAL HU!

[9ThursdayGirl]

What a great time to be a HU student in DC. Please know that starting "we" must represent President Obama in everthing we do..."we" must make him look GOOD.

It is a Great Time to Be LIVE

[cb1913]

That's that HU knowledge. It's so true that everything we do must be done with excellence because now more than ever, all eyes are on us, and we are a reflection upon President- Elect Obama. Not to treat him as our god, but acknowledging that our community is on his shoulders, the least we can do is help strengthen him rather than tear him down.

[LadyofClass05]

I simply love the First Family and I love Howard University!!!! I wish I was there with you all! Only at HU!

[Yamo72]

That's what I'm talkin 'bout! Yes we can! I'm a Howard alum and y'all made me proud! I watched it on CNN. I saw crowds at the White House and I was hopin it was Howard at the gates!

[AfroNightLife]

DC last night was AMAZING!!!

Led by Howard Students, we started the party here on this video ON CAMPUS --

Then we SHUT DOWN GEORGIA AVENUE!!!!

We then proceeded to MARCH from Howard to U Street - SHUT IT DOWN!

And then from U Street to 16th - and SHUT DOWN 16TH...

Then, proceeded to march straight to the White House --- 5,000 people strong! It was one of the most memorable experiences of my lifetime. Celebrating Barack Obama's victory.

It was the amazing feeling I've ever had.
