In the past, when I transferred from a private school to a public high school, I was alienated by high school staff nurturing others who did not have to work for what they had. It is very safe to say that I was bummed out by the time I graduated from high school. Yet, the only reason why I worked hard in high school was because I wanted to attend the University of Houston- University Park. Since I was never discriminated against, I was finally free to act as myself in an independent, yet very nurturing environment. The lack of discrimination is due to the fact that the University of Houston- University Park is the most diverse universities in the nation. I learned about the qualities of the University of Houston, such as the 10% Psychology program in the nation, #2 English Creative Writing Graduate Program in the nation (#1 among Ph.D. programs), and many other qualities. Soon, universities like University of Texas- Austin and Texas A&M University did not look so pretty after all. Finally, here was a school that did not just test your academic ability, but your ability to understand life. Now I have always heard from MANY people degrading the University of Houston because it is around third ward. Well, third ward means that African Americans are predominant, so these people so many inferences to racism. The truth is, if you give the third ward community a chance, these people will give you the respect you deserve. And on that note, here is one very interesting FACT from these opinions about the crime at the University of Houston: you are 2-8 times safer at the University of Houston than you are at the University of Texas. Here is my source: http://ope.ed.gov/security/index.asp and if you want to look at other schools of interest, you may do so on this site. So there you have it. No matter how much oppression or hype you have taken in life, there is good probability that the University of Houston will give you a helping hand in academics and life.
