But, there it is again. They want to encourage more of "their kind" to join engineering- a fellowship tacitly based solely on race and gender. Again, how is that not racist? I mean, they came right out and said it in the name- they only are trying to help people of the right race and gender.
Here's the only test you'll ever need to know if something is racist. Take out whatever gender of race identifier they used- "Women," "Hispanic," etc.- and substitute in "White" or "Male" as appropriate. If it then sounds racist, then so was the original form.
