Kamala Harris to celebrate election night at Howard University, her alma mater
Kamala Harris will spend election night at Howard University, her alma mater, where she graduated in 1986. This event is significant as she could become the first Black woman elected president of the United States. Howard University, known as "the Black Harvard," has a rich history and has produced notable alumni, including civil rights leader Thurgood Marshall. Harris has often returned to the campus for important moments in her career. Harris's connection to Howard includes her early political involvement as a student council representative. The university has a strong reputation among Historically Black Colleges and Universities, with around 11,000 students currently enrolled.
