As the oldest Catholic and Jesuit institute of higher learning in the United States, Georgetown University was almost lost before it had even really begun. In 1789, John Carroll purchased 60 acres of land on a hill overlooking the Georgetown village. Forming the school, classes at Georgetown College commenced in 1792. It would be several years before the first bachelor's degrees were issued, which was in 1817. As a Virginia institution, Georgetown found itself in the midst of The Civil War. Because it only admitted male students, enrollment took an enormous hit. Between 1859 and 1861, it dropped from 313 students to a meager 17. Several of the building on campus were converted to temporary hospitals to aid the war, and higher education was put on hold. After the conclusion of The Civil War, Georgetown celebrated the end by choosing blue (for the Union) and grey (for the Confederacy) as the official school colors in 1876.
Since the 19th century, Georgetown has become a prominent university known globally as a research institution. In 1962, students brought the first Jack the Bulldog to campus, who later became the official mascot. Legend has it that he wouldn't answer to his original name, which was 'Hoya,' but instead responded to 'Jack'. Today, you can find the current Jack around campus. Women and students of all racial backgrounds now attend this prestigious school of over 12,000 students.

Fast shipping and delivery (under 48 hrs), accurate shipping notifications, and best of all, high-quality unique fashion items. This v-neck shirt is nice and soft; made very well. I like the LHP all over print, it gives the tee more character and I don’t mind repping the brand cuz it’s dope. Cute and feminine look. True-to-size but order 1 size up if you want a looser fit.

My grandson jermaine marrow played basketball for the hu pirates. An he's the school's alltime leading scorer in point's at this time. A record stood for 40 years So I'II always support HBCU.
I love this sweatshirt! HU
Ordered a size up from what my son normally wears (wears L, ordered XL) and the fit is perfect, especially if you plan to wear a hoodie or sweatshirt underneath. Nice, thick quality and he has received lots of compliments just from his Decision Day announcement in which he is wearing it proudly. Super fast shipping. A little more pricey than others but well worth it!
