I read this this morning as well. Its an interesting way of showing displeasure... BUT, it won't be received well. Remember the affirmative action cookie stand??
I mean the following in no way racist, but it may sound that way.
Its horrible to think that the world beleives that since someone is white, that they are automatically rich and well placed. I didnt go to University more then a semester because I couldnt afford it. My parents could afford to send one of us (my sister and I) for half of University.. She got the half. I saved up for the semester..
I feel that University and College should be universally available, and in the perfect workd we do not live in, it would be. At the very least all scholarships should be based on merit. Black out people's names, race, age, and sex.. go by grades, extra curricular activities, and resume.. that way there is a balance between people who could spend all thier time at the books, and others who had to work while they were in school..
