What about people from the Arabic parts of Africa such as Egypt who have lighter skin? Would they still be African-Americans in this case? Or would they be lumped into the "Middle-Eastern" category? They should say what they really mean, even if it means being "Politically Incorrect". If they mean the "Black people from Africa Award" then say it, but if they say African-American then it's blatant racial discrimination against anyone from Africa who's not black.
Hell, if I was that South African-American student I'd sue the school for two things:
a) Racial discrimination
b) Being suspended without a good cause, which caused him to miss out on valuable learning time
If the school wants to be assholes, two can play at that game I say.
