Joshua Packwood
Joshua Packwood, 22, will be the first white valedictorian at the historically black Morehouse College.
This weekend he'll be the first white valedictorian to graduate from the historically black, all male Morehouse College in the school's 141-year history.
Morehouse, in Atlanta, Georgia, is one the nation's most prestigious universities of its kind. For more than a century, the school has prided itself on personifying the dream of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., one of the school's most notable alums, by producing "Morehouse Men" - intelligent and successful black leaders.
"Because I'm one of the only white students, it's easy to call me 'the white boy,' I'm naturally going to stand out," says Packwood. |

Brave guy. I'll freely admit that being the only one of your race in school or such can be unnerving sometimes. I experienced it in Frisco during HS, I was the one white person out of 1,500 students. I got made fun of a lot, and it was pretty hard. But it's probably easier in a) adulthood, b) a high class college. Good for him.

| Quote: | That student, Vinson Muhammad, says he was curious about the reasons why someone like Packwood would choose to attend an all-black college.
"I don't necessarily support him being here, but because he's here and we can't discriminate against other races, I support him and his mission to be successful in life," says Muhammad, a junior. "I just kind of wish he had done it at a different institution." |
nope, blacks can't be racist! This 'Muhammad' guy loves weaselly words, doesn't he?

Congrats. I met him (Josh) last year at the "'House" on a contract job. His family was down for a visit while I was there. His step-sister got some big ol' Dolly Parton tits.
