Worldwide Ty says college is where tech founders meet their co-founders, often as roommates. Many Black families reduce it to just finishing school, missing the networking value. Pick a major you care about, join programs, meet people.

College is your best networking experience. That's where most people that start tech companies, they started with their college roommate, right? And I don't think that, especially in the Black household, that they are educated enough to say what college is really beneficial in multiple ways. It's just like, you better go to school. You finish high school, you better get outta here. Versus, hey, you should go to college. Pick a major, something you're passionate about, but remember the most important thing, meet everybody.
That's right. It's not just about what you're learning in the book.
Meet everybody. Join every program. Meet everything. Anything you're passionate about, go explore it. And we're not, we're so boggled down with how we gonna pay for college that we don't get the right information because the, I got a master's, I got an undergrad. Obviously I went to high school, all these different things, but nothing was more impactful. And I'll always say this, than that, that 4 or 5 days at Harvard.
