Box Score WILBERFORCE, Ohio – It was a tough lost playing at home for the Central State women’s basketball team against the visiting Trevecca Nazarene Trojans (7-8) tonight.

The Lady Marauders (3-10; 1-4) could not make a stop defensively when it matter most and lost to the away team, 69-76.

Central State University President Cynthia Jackson-Hammond was in the house with as many as 724 students in attendance to watch the double header game featuring both CSU Men’s and Women’s Basketball teams in action against the Trojans, but was sad to see the home team Lady Marauders suffer a heartbreaking defeat.

The Lady Marauders shot poorly at 29.41% from the field in the first half and improved late in the game, shooting just under half of its shots at 44.12% in the second half.

Senior Guard Iniquia Snell scored multiple 3-pointers and was 6-13 from the field in a notable effort to get the dub for CSU. The Lady Marauders however failed to get the win after tying up the game 41-41 in the 2nd half of play since being on the defensive and trailing throughout against the Trojans.

In order to get the game tied at 41-41, Guard Kourtni Perry made a clutch shot to make it 37-39, Trojans. Later Guard Demetria Nunley-Lash made a big 3-pointer to finally tie the game as the Lady Marauders was on a roll offensively.

But the story of this game was the Lady Marauder’s inability to make stops defensively against the Trojans.

The Lady Marauders plays GMAC foe Kentucky Wesleyan University next on Saturday, Jan. 17

9 Things to Know Before Dating at an HBCU

Posted by
Posted on
If dating were a movie, it would be like the film Inception, or Prestige, or Trance or Double Jeopardy or some other really big film that has 5-star plot twist, but is not really understandable. If dating on an HBCU campus were a movie…the film director would soon realize he/she needed to make it a reality show instead because dating at a black college would not be a movie, it would be a reality show. And a really good show.

When dating on an HBCU campus, each campus has its own dynamics. But 9 things will never change:

In the prime, don’t waste your time

Understand at the collegiate age, the students are in their prime. What does this mean? In most cases, it means young men and young women are experiencing a new environment different from high school, and are adjusting to more freedom. For guys, they prioritize: having fun, being free of obligation, and exploring new things. It is a rightfully selfish time adolescent males and experience.

For women, we prioritize having fun, being free of obligation, and exploring new things. Young women and young women express priorities differently.

Ladies: do not get caught being his exploration of something new. Do not confuse him having fun with you as being in a relationship.

Gents: do not sell a dream, and do not dig to reveal what someone you are interested in desires by pretending to be what she desires.

Joe Shmoe vs. Mr. President

Ever wonder why girls go for certain types?

I recently overheard a conversation between two guys in Starbucks, and they were trying to figure out how one guy has women throwing themselves at him for sex, and the other gets thrown marriage proposals, arranged marriage, and more serious, permanent offers. I had pointed out, after politely interrupting them, that if a girl is looking for intimacy it is likely she will draw an introverted guy who is an innate gentleman, which has already made her comfortable. Not the ladies man, who is already presumed to have a high body count and tons of options.

One point for the Joe Shmoes out there.

Time is everything and being proportionate matters

If someone does not respect your time, they do not respect you.

Think of dating as a meal at a picnic: there is a red and white checker-print blanket between you and your date, and the both of you each have a basket. It is not ideal to simply dump your basket out.

It is ideal however to empty the baskets together, i.e. sharing “food” at the same time–if he pulls out the beans, match him with a salad, and if she takes out the potato salad, share the pasta.

Know your worth

If you have a list of things you may want in a man/woman, have you seriously asked yourself your own worth? What do you bring to the table? Be honest with yourself.

Ladies: you say you want that millionaire, but what have you saved? Yes, you are cute. But what millionaire WANTS a broke woman? You will have more confidence in this type of relationship having your own anyway. So get to saving.

Gents: you say you want a woman that has her own, that “Miss Independent” woman. But do your have your own? Do you still depend on your mother, or have you even moved out of her house yet?

Dorms do not count.

Nobody wants to wife the girl that has been smashed by all the homies

…and knows the secret escape routes to all the male dorms. NOBODY.

And nobody wants to date the guy who will spit game to a paper bag. Again, NOBODY (no one of quality, at least)!

WOW…so you are excited that you have met someone in the family?

Cute, but certain members of the family do not count as much as you think. Introductions to brothers and sisters are typically used to make the person being introduced comfortable.

Let your heart skip a beat if/when you meet your significant other’s mother or grandmother.

Status matters to some people

I know we have all seen those couples that ‘should not’ be together. Then you discover that one is a Nupe or an AKA, and you erase this conception from your little collegiate list of worries because that fact alone gave their relationship justification.

Guilty.

Everybody knows people that date for status purposes. It is not right, but that is life.

When he or she gets “off line,” he/she will be a bit different…

Expect it and get over it.

Nobody pledges Alpha Phi Alpha to become He Phi He nor Delta Sigma Theta to become She Phi She. Greeks (most, sadly) are going to be ‘different’ than what you remember them as because…they are now Greek.

Jay-Z says it best, nobody works really hard to remain the same.

Both guys and girls gossip

So if you are sleeping around, SOMEBODY will know.

I would argue that in some ways, contrary to popular belief, information regarding sexual promiscuity spreads at a more rapid pace among males. I believe males have a tendency to be more open when it comes to sharing information regarding women, primarily because they are realistic about the longevity potential for the relationship, and only protect information of females who are not “hoe-ing around” and who they truly like.

Raised in a society that denounces feminism, women are constantly trying fulfill our personal definitions of being a grown woman, and in most cases, because that definition does not include sleeping with the university, we opt to conceal our business.

..Oh and ladies, I am also saying, if you are not dating, and sometimes even if you are, that cool trick that you got from  that ‘cool’ website, and that one time at band camp when you “lost your mind,” more likely than not, he told his boys.

Date responsibly.

The Xavier University of Louisiana (XULA) Gold Nuggets beat out the Tougaloo Bulldogs 69-58 in a “slew of season and career highs” on Monday.

The Gold Nugget now has three wins in the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference, and remains undefeated in conference play this season.

XU led the way the entire game, leading by as much as 17 points in the first half and it seemed as if the Bulldogs were no match for XULA’s firepower on Monday.

From SportsNOLA, “Four scored in double figures for the Gold Nuggets (10-9, 3-0 GCAC), led by freshman Ireyon Keith with a career-high-tying 13 points. Donyeah Mayfield and Whitney Gathright scored 12 points apiece — Mayfield matched her season high — and sophomore Kelsee Singleton produced her first XU double-double with a career-high-tying 10 points and a career-best 10 rebounds.”

Empire a New Fav?

On Jan. 7 Fox debuted their new scripted show Empire starring some of our favorites, Terrence Howard and Howard grad Taraji P. Henson. The two play a couple who went separate ways after Henson, who plays “Cookie,” goes to prison for a drug deal gone bad.

The premiere of the FOX show attracted the attention of 9.8 million viewers. With Empire centering on hip hop culture, and drama (because really, who is not interested in both these days?), it looks as though it will turn out to be a series with longevity.

The money “Cookie” recoups from her drug dealing lifestyle is what starts her Ex-Husband “Lucious Lyons’” (Terrance Howard) multi-million dollar Music Business, Empire Records. The show centers upon Cookies’ return where she is determined to get what she believes she rightfully deserves, and also focuses in on Lucious’ decision on which of his three sons will run the company after he steps down.

Andre (Trai Byers), Jamal (Jussie Smollett), and Hakeem Lyon (Bryshere Gray), are all extremely different from one another, and each of them wants to take over the family business. It all simply comes down to who is right for the job, in Lucious Lyons’ eyes.

The series, being based upon a musical aspect, features music produced by Grammy Award Winning Producer Timbaland. We all know that Timbaland can bang out the hits in the studio, so this show definitely is not falling short of grace in this area.

Reviews for the show are exhibiting fence riding or skeptical tendencies. But it looks as though people are at least going to give the show a chance before they shoot it down completely:

From Hollywood Reporter, “Empire does much more right than it does wrong is encouraging — but it’s always hard to judge the actual quality of a series, or even what that series will eventually be, by just one episode.”

While the show is giving us good acting, the plot does seem to be somewhat broad, nevertheless it is interesting, and will create some curiosity among its viewers.

The premiere was the highest rated among Fox’s shows in the past three years. The next episode will air on Jan. 14 on FOX at 9/8c.

3 Tuskegee Students Shot in Off-Campus Incident

Three of Tuskegee University’s students were wounded during an off-campus shooting Saturday night. The university is currently cooperating and working side-by-side with the City of Tuskegee police to investigate the incident.  

“Tuskegee University confirms that there has been an off-campus shooting involving three of its students,” university officials say. “The City of Tuskegee police department is investigating the incident. University representatives have visited and been in contact with the students and their families. The students are in stable condition and are expected to recover from their injuries. The university is cooperating with local authorities regarding the investigation.”

One victim, 19-year-old student Ayden Harris, was shot five times and is now in stabled condition in the Intensive Care Unit at East Alabama Medical Center, reports say. 

Family members of Harris, and others are still trying to piece together exactly what happened that Saturday, and the university is currently conducting its own investigation to determine whether there have been any violations to their student code of conduct policy.

“He’s in good hands here at the medical center. But he is in, ICU, intensive care, and that means a lot to me,” Harris’s uncle, Carl Hemphill told WTVM.

“He’s a real strong guy. He’s an A-student, pre-med, ROTC, he’s part of a fraternity – a real cream of the crop I would say. And I’m real surprised that this incident took place and he was involved with it. So I’m still trying to figure it out and piece together what exactly took place,” Hemphill said.

Counseling services are being made available to those who have been impacted by this incident. The university is also asking that any information on the alleged shooter be given to the City of Tuskegee police department at 334-727-0200.

This story is still developing.

This Howard University Graduate is Running for Senate

Posted by HBCU Editors

California Attorney General Kamala Harris, who graduated from Howard University, a historically black college or university (HBCU) in Washington, D.C., recently announced that she will be seeking a Senate seat vacated by Sen. Barbara Boxer in 2016.

Harris was the first to formally declare her candidacy since Sen. Boxer announced that she would step down from her seat, according to CNN.

Notably, the Howard grad became the first person outside the long lineage of white males to hold the AG office when she was elected in 2010.

From her new campaign website: “I’m excited to share with you that I’m launching my campaign to represent the people of California in the United States Senate,” Harris said.

She added, “Your support has been crucial to me every step of the way, and I’m asking you to help me build a grassroots campaign that reaches every community of California.”

“From my first days as a prosecutor in Alameda County, to my work as San Francisco District Attorney to my current service as California Attorney General, I have worked to bring smart, innovative and effective approaches to fighting crime, fighting for consumers and fighting for equal rights for all,” said Harris.

Jay-Z Has ‘Strong’ Views on Hip-Hop and Race Relations

Posted by Itopia Mills

To commemorate civil rights leaders and legends, and recognize the newly released movie “Selma,” the OWN network, owned and operated by Tennessee State grad Oprah, is hosting a month-long celebration of the historic march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama. 

In a recent episode of Oprah’s Master Class, Jay-Z shed some knowledge on how he feels about race relations regarding Hip-Hop and police brutality.

“I think that Hip-Hop has done more for racial relations than most cultural icons,” Jay-Z said. The rapper warned that he had “strong” views on how hip-hop has impacted racism, and to many, these were some interesting choice words since the rapper usually is not very vocal on political and racial issues.

Looking back at recent incidents of police brutality occurring in Ferguson, New York and Florida, and around the country I think that his opinion is honest and is, perhaps, somewhat accurate.

The recent deaths of Mike Brown and Eric Garner have caused many rappers in the hip-hop industry to use their voices for good for a change:

A collaborative song by The Game, Rick Ross and Diddy was released in early August to honor Mike Brown and to contribute to the victim’s memorial fund. J. Cole was seen at Eric Garner protests in New York and Missouri, and released a song called “Be Free” in memory of Eric Garner. Kendrick Lamar spoke on how his song, “I,” impacted the situations of Mike Brown and Eric Garner.

These artists have used their voices to make an impact, no doubt.

Like Jay-Z said, people listen to Hip-Hop music all around the world so even if you are not engaged the issues happening in the world, in particular happening here in America–thanks to Hip-Hop, you are now informed. 

And perhaps, this is what Jay-Z meant by “doing more.”  

6 Reasons Selma is a Must See for HBCU Students

Posted by Sonia Montalvo
Posted on
Director Ava DuVernay impressively depicts Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s time and energy spent on Voting Inequalities in her film “Selma.” It specifically pinpoints the work King put forth in Selma, Alabama during the 60’s.

“Selma”, which made its theater debut on Jan. 9th, is already a sparking conversation among the public.

If you haven’t gone to see it yet, here’s six reasons why you should.

Directorial and writing chemistry is notable

Writer Paul Webb and Director Ava DuVernay (whom also co-wrote the screenplay), seems to have concocted cinematic gold with bringing their ideas to life. The script of the movie peaks interest by hitting the audience over the head with effect and influence; while the directorial aspect gives an exciting, dramatic, and artistic feel to the visuals.

This is not the MLK you learned about in History class

What makes this movie so unique and interesting to watch is that it doesn’t follow the pattern of the MLK stories you’ve heard since elementary school.

The movie focuses on a pivotal point in MLK’s life and the impression he had on society. “Selma” doesn’t shy away from the fact that King, just like any other human being, had flaws; yet those same flaws didn’t diminish his powerful impact. The movie touched base on his marital issues, vulnerability, etc. Nevertheless “Selma” still painted him in a positive light.

DuVernay has kept it all the way real!

The actors do a heck of a job

David Oyelowo, who has been featured in movies such as Red Tails and The Butler, put an immense deal of time and effort into practicing his role as Martin Luther King. His talent and knowledge of King’s defining presence has set this MLK depiction apart from the others.

Oyelowos co-stars Carmen Ejogo (Coretta Scott King), Oprah Winfrey (Annie Lee Cooper), and Lorraine Toussaint (Amelia Boynton), do riveting jobs on letting their characters speak for themselves, all while still showcasing their own talents. When watching the movie, one could say it gives the feeling of actually being there.

Critics are giving rave reviews.

…and the movie is receiving some great feedback.

Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritc, and a plethora of others have given the movie high praises. New York Times states, “Even if you think you know what’s coming, “Selma” hums with suspense and surprise. Packed with incident and overflowing with fascinating characters, it is a triumph of efficient, emphatic cinematic storytelling and much more than that, of course.”

No sugarcoating the violence

Selma does an impeccable job at portraying the real life acts of violence against “Selma” protestors. There was no skipping of police brutality in this movie. The audience will get to see the inhumane ways that the victims were treated, and possibly cringe at the realistic yet powerful depictions.

IT IS IMPORTANT!!

It is dire that we as African Americans, support movies that highlights and celebrates our history in in the manner in which it deserves to be. “Selma” is a movie of substance that can give its audience something to be proud of, something that can only push the culture in a forward moving direction. Right in the thick of current issues that a large portion of society has chosen to protest over (Mike Brown and Eric Garner killings), Ava DuVernay’s “Selma” is right on time with its message of standing for what you believe in.

5 Fashion Tips for Spring 2015

Posted by LaTavia McQueen
Posted on
With the new spring semester the weather is looking frightful!

First you have to deal with harsh winters and then a hot spring right before summer break. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning can be hard to task when trying to stay warm or cool and still trying to look good.

Here are 5 fashion tips for Spring 2015:

1. Invest in a good coat

A coat can not only be fashionable but it will keep you warm for the winter in the beginning of the semester. Peacoat’s are always a great choice! They’re stylish yet still professional and classy.

2.Accessories: Useful & Stylish

Accessories can really make or break an outfit. For men a nice watch can make all the difference. Using scarves, gloves and hats will not only add some flare to outfit but it will also keep you warm on those cold walks across campus.

3. Layer, Layer, LAYER!

With unpredictable weather layers are your friend! They keep you warm but are easy to take off when you need to cool down. Thermals are an easy way to keep warm, while sometimes it might come in handy to wear an extra camisole or cardigan just in case you need to shed a layer later on in the afternoon.

4. Less isn’t always more 

When it does warm up later in the spring time that doesn’t necessarily mean its time to get naked. Ladies I know we love our crop tops and high-wasted shorts but we don’t have to wear them immediately at the first sign of sunlight just to go to class.

5. Be Yourself!

No matter what the weather forecast is, or what everybody else has own, find your own style! The best way to sell an outfit is to actually feel good in what you have on.As long as you’re comfortable nothing else matters.

No. 24 Gold Rush Rallies Against No. 16 Panthers

Xavier University of Louisiana (XULA) rallied past Philander Smith in stunning fashion on Saturday.

The No. 24 Gold Rush outscored No. 16 Philander 20-1 during the last 10 minutes. From the XULA athletic website, Junior Guard Morris Wright said, “Sometimes we find ourselves stuck in a hole, but we know how to get out if it.”

“Our team has a lot of fight in it,” Wright said, scoring 12 points on the night among two other teammates. “The defense picked it up in the second half, and the offense got better.”

Wright led the team in crucial moments in the game.

He scored 5 points during their rally past the Panthers to take the lead with one minute left, and his three pointer put the Rush up by 4 points.

Crashing the boards was important in XULA’s win over Philander. They out-rebounded Philander 18-6 in the final 11 minutes, and totally controlled the entire game at rebounding, 45-29.

The Panthers had dominated this season at rebounding, but XULA managed to beat Philander at their own game.

The Gold Rush obviously played great defense. Jarvis Thibodeaux had seven boards and a career-high two blocks. Aquil Baynard finished the game with just 8 points but entered this contest with 18.5 points per game. He struggled 3-11 from the floor and had a season-worst seven turnovers.

To make up for Baynard lack of scoring Philander shot terribly from the free throw line. They were 6-16 while the Gold Rush shot 14-19.

XULA will play Tougaloo on Monday. Tougaloo is undefeated after blowing SUNO out by 20.

Tennessee State Moves to Four Day Class Schedule

Posted by Robert Hoggard
Posted on
President Glenda Glover and Tennessee State recently announced that the university will move to a four day class schedule in the Spring of 2015.

Tennessee State University will hold classes from Monday-Thursday, and the offices will be open five days per week. Dr. Glover said this change will allow more time for advising, faculty office hours, and more time for faculty to research in their expertise.

According to My FOX Memphis, “It is the first university in the Tennessee Board of Regents system to condense classes to four days. Institutions that have adopted the change include Southern University in Baton Rouge, and Northeast Mississippi Community College in Booneville, Mississippi.”

This switch does not mean that TSU students will spend less time in class–in fact, 50 minute classes will be extended to one hour and 20 minutes for each class, according to the university’s website.

From TSU News, Vice-President for Academic Affairs Dr. Mark Hardy said, “We have a president who is innovative and always looking for new ways to help our students succeed. The four-day class schedule ad our book bundle effort, which started last semester, are just some of the ways that demonstrate this administration’s commitment to providing an academic environment that promotes student success.”

Chris Attaway, who is President of ACA Ministries, told HBCU Buzz, “In a moment where mentorship is minute, I believe that TSU is moving in a productive direction. I salute Dr. Glover for taking the academic arena from a ‘typewriter–do it if you can’ model to a ‘computer assist and always possible’ praxis.”

Attaway added, “We thank her for her leadership, her covering, and tutelage in this time. We’re praying that the All-wise and Knowing God will continue to lead her in her cutting edge endeavors.”
