Fall is busy for HBCUs, and especially for students like Megan Thee Stallion, who is still enrolled at Texas Southern University. Homecoming season (shout out to Howard and Spelhouse a.k.a. Spelman-Morehouse) caters to HBCU fam, football “classics” attract more strangers. Still many fun fall events have nothing to do with HBCUs. Be it college, cars, cuisine or community, fall has it all. Here’s a taste:

October 8–27
