the race-label questions for colleges, workplaces, etc. are used primarily to follow equal-opportunity standards set up in order to level out populations so that no single race holds the vast majority. the stupid part is that the same people who fought for these laws concerning race and equality are usually the ones who get all butt-hurt and whiny because they dont want to be labelled and still expect special treatment because of their race. it all comes down to our culture's inherent laziness. if someone finds out they can reap what they didnt sow, they'll do whatever they can to milk it.
