My friend Khaiel(who's at Spelman) said Raven doesn't go there. She looked for her :lol:, and she hasn't seen her at any of the freshman activities.... she asked around and everyone told her it was just a rumor that wasn't true. Maybe they are trying to keep her attendance a secret.... but why would they do that?

Funny I was just cussin because they said Wanda Sykes went to Spellman...when she was on some show she was talkin bout she was so suprised she wasnt bougie cuz she was a Hamptonian..... :roll: I tell ya...Ebony is usually right about these things, I guess it was a Typo.. Someone should write a letter....

I was just wondering if anyone else noticed this faux pas. And she graduated not with a B.A. it was a BS in Marketing.

I did notice the Wanda Sykes one. I was pissed because I wrote a brief story on her in last year's homecoming issue of the Script, and I put her HAMPTON U yearbook picture in there also. One of my friends had the nerve to argue with me and tell me that she didn't go to Hampton. Shame on Ebony Mag creating confusion.
