I love my university, TSU is a relaxed and diverse institution for students looking to study just about anything. I'm currently in the Jesse H. Jones School of Business where I find it very fulfilling to be receiving instruction and mentor ship from black professionals that are in the position I wish to be in one day. I've also take advantage of our amazing Foreign Language department and I'm a Spanish double major student still on track to graduate in four years. Students, community members and High School graduates should keep HBCU's (Historically Black University/Colleges) alive and thriving because they feed the communities surrounding them mentors and role models come from where they come from, and encourage them to also strive for higher learning.
In my experience, TSU has a great Education program! However, as students, we have to take a THEA exam and a Content exam in order to graduate! These exams cost money and it would be helpful if TSU offered money for the exams.
Texas Southern University may not be the best recognized school there is. Texas Southern University has created a welcoming environment for both international student, and natural born student. The School is known for having the best business, best Law School, and Best Pharmacy school. Although, there have been a lot of negative report about the school, which could also happen to any other school; the School police work very hard to make sure that the students are safe and in a perfect condition. The teachers work hand in hand with the students, to make sure that students are ready for the next semester or class and also the future
