Trivia: What is the name of the HBCU on “A Different World”?
Harrison University
Grand Lakes University
Hudson University
Hillman College
Correct Answer: Hillman College
So why is this answer correct? : “A Different World,” a spinoff of “The Cosby Show,” originally followed Denise Huxtable (Lisa Bonet) as she attended Hillman College, a fictional historically Black college in Virginia. Bonet left the show after the first season, but Hillman lived on with other students including Whitley Gilbert-Wayne (Jasmine Guy), Ron Johnson (Daryl M. Bell), and Dwayne Cleophus Wayne (Kadeem Hardison).
