In College, you’re thrown into this new world where you’re discovering yourself. Imagine then adding a relationship with a whole other human being; yea, it isn’t always easy. Sydney Price, aka SydTheCreative, is a Sophomore Psychology major at Spelman College. She bravely takes on the feat of exposing all the beautiful and not so beautiful aspects of loving another person as a college student.
The creative Sydney is a well-known videographer and YouTuber in the Atlanta University Center with 3.9 thousand subscribers and over 33 thousand views on her most known poetry narrative video, “To My Next Boyfriend.” Her most recent web series “College Students Explain” delves into the perspective of black college students and their relationships, both the good, the bad, the pretty and the ugly. “I was inspired by Jubilee Media and The Skin Deep on YouTube to start this series, but I wanted to center my series around college students because I feel like the college experience is really a pivotal time. In terms of approaching love, the black experience is much different and there’s a lot of different things that come into play when thinking about dating or having those romantic experiences. I think that plays a large role in who we choose to date and how we choose to date,” says Price.
