What happens when outsiders to the HBCU community try to impact Black college culture? The answer may not be as straightforward as you think.
BALTIMORE, Md. — After growing up homeless in Baltimore, being diagnosed with leukemia in ninth grade and spending months in hospital, Reggie Evans will walk down the aisle.
After spending about six months in the hospital, Reggie took honors courses and advanced classes, ended up with a GPA above 3.0 and was back on track.
Reggie said having the support of family and friends kept him going.
In the fall, Reggie is heading to Loyola University and plans to major in communication with an emphasis in digital media.
