Watch Your Head is a daily comic strip written and illustrated by Cory Thomas, focusing on the lives of six students at Oliver Otis University, a fictional Historically Black university. Based upon Thomas' experiences as a student at Howard University, Watch Your Head was first published in Howard's newspaper, The Hilltop.
The strip was picked up for national distribution by the Washington Post Writers Group (WPWG) in 2006, and was launched on March 19. WPWG moved up the launch date of the strip from the date originally planned so as to make it available as a potential replacement for The Boondocks, which went on permanent hiatus in March 2006.

Famous quotes containing the words watch and/or head:
“The indispensable ingredient of any game worth its salt is that the children themselves play it and, if not its sole authors, share in its creation. Watching TV’s ersatz battles is not the same thing at all. Children act out their emotions, they don’t talk them out and they don’t watch them out. Their imagination and their muscles need each other.”
—Leontine Young (20th century)
“What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why,
I have forgotten, and what arms have lain
Under my head till morning; out the rain
Is full of ghosts tonight,”
—Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
