      Many amazing moments, but suffers from a crippling cadre of poor admin. leadership, many left over from previous admin.

      Pros

      Excellent opportunity to impact lives of young and deserving AA students, some excellent flexibility in bringing new and innovative ideas to the table. Howard at its best is at the heart of the global dialogue on scholarship, economic empowerment, and other key issues that impact the global Black community.

      Cons

      Previous administration significantly damaged the development, fiscal health, and brand of the university; unfortunately some of these incompetent individuals are still in key positions of leadership and influence and will not go away. Financial and accounting management is weak and quite frankly embarrassing at times.

      There is no respect for employees who don't have a degree.

      Pros

      I came to Howard because of the remission of tuition program. The benefits were outstanding at the time I came to Howard.

      Cons

      It is very hard to enroll and use the remission of tuition benefit. The University does not have online undergraduate classes, and your supervisor have the option of letting you attend classes during the day. You will never be able to attend a class because there is no one to cover your shift. Howard does not give pay rises unless you are union employees.
