Most of this shit goes on in the extreme left wing schools like Brown and UC Berkley. Most of the Ivy League schools are becoming this way as well. I saw a professor on TV yesterday that was denied tenoir(sp?) because he was a conservative, and the other profs did not like because of it. It is a problem, maybe not at every school, but it is still a problem. I think schooling should teach both sides of an issue, and let the student make their own decisions. It isn't the place to try to indoctrinate young minds with your bullshit.

I really want to start a White Straight and Properly Bathed Appreciation Day and Parade. Then we'll start our own TV channel called WET and talk about things like Country Clubs, How to Deal with Unruly Caddies, and Bass Fishing, it's Not Just an Excuse to Fuck Your Secretary Anymore.

I don't disagree that they have them available. I have to go back and see what the class is I took that covered the "Non-dominant cultural heritage" requirement. I know it wasn't a diversity pushing class. Also - you must also realize, Miami in general is actually pretty conservative. Well...except for Western Campus. That place would be hell on earth for you, Madman. Extreme like you would not believe. People in that college don't even have a name for their "major." The Office of Multi-culturalism has been there for years. The GLBA (now GLBTA, I think) has been there for at least 15 years. Also to add - I do know it's infiltrating at Miami as well - if I recall correctly, only a few years ago they officially changed students from "Freshmen" to "First Year students." That, and they got rid of the mascot, The Miami Redskin. Now they are the Redhawks (even though originally, the Miami Tribe said they had no problems with Redskin).

Stetson University for me it started in '93, used to be a "Southern Baptist" university. Got away from the baptists church for their primary funding and were told they were not culturally diverse enough, so alot of white students (myself included)lost financial aid, grants, and scholarships so they could attract minority students from other countries.

Basically he said that it attracts a lot of lazy people that don't do shit, and one of the profs got real pissed off, probably because it was true for him.

That is bullshit. Yet another example of PC, poor me I'm a minority, bullshit. The other country part pisses me off.

I'm curious as to which awards/loans got cut off. Can't pretty much anyone get a Stafford loan? I don't know which other ones are publicly/privately funded, but let's face it...a private entity can pretty much do whatever it wants (within reason, obviously) and there's not much you can do about it. And how many exactly is "a lot?" I'm not saying it didn't happen to you...but it seems like when someone gets slapped in the face like it appears you did, they tend to exaggerate how many others it happened to.

The grants were eliminated my junior year and this is the reason I was given. Not coincidentally they had recently started an international students program. I can't give you accurate numbers, but it is a small school and I know of quite a few students who went elsewhere to finish their degree because of it.

I don't understand some of it. I mean, people should be based on merit alone. I can *sort* of understand if they were completely equal, giving it to the minority - but ONLY if they are truly exactly equal. note - I can SORT of understand. But if one is slightly more qualified, however slight, they deserve the position, regardless of race, period.

Most major corporations today are requiring employees to attend diversity training seminars. If yours hasn't jumped on the "diversity" bandwagon yet, believe me there is some executive right now considering it. The corporate diversity training business is now over a billion dollar a year industry. Driven by lefties just like you.
All public and most private universities now have "diversity requirements". Certain courses fulfill these diversity requirements. They didn't have shit like this back in my day either but it is standard now. Ask any kid in college.
I don't believe for one minute that you didn't know about this shit. You are nothing but lying scum. And you're nothing but a sorry sack of shit. I challenge you to find just ONE post where I state that "whitey" is the bad guy. I myself started classes at B.U. in 1993 and graduated in 1998 (undergrad), and I don't ever remember seeing any of these diversity training courses you're talking about, and if they did offer it, I'd only take it if I had to. As I posted many times here before, color/religious beliefs/sexual preference means nothing to me (so long as it not forced upon me or my family), so in my I eyes, diversity training is irrelevant. For instance, I don't care if you (NY Jerkoff) are black or white, Catholic or Jewish, or the fact that you're a closet homosexual, you're still just panty waste. Don't you ever get tired of your false accusations and paranoid conspiracy theories? :rolleyes:
