Pat Casten, College Republicans Chairman, Lake Forest College, read a statistic that only 25% of his liberal college campus was "conservative". So he went to the college and requested "diversity" funding to represent this "minority" and was successful! Spread the word on this technique.
On one hand, a conservative asking for a “grant” like this bothers me one a philosophical level.
One the other hand, it’s pretty darn funny!
Bump for later.
Amazing.
Do you realize the impact? We could go after tens of millions in funding across America...within the vast number of universities that exist. We could force university professors to attend diversity training, if they were “issues”. We could tie up the court system and force every single majority group to become defensive in nature.
Using the liberal’s own “good intentions” against them.
Nice.
Oftentimes these “grants” are paid for by student dues and tuitions, so it is really students recouping their own funds. A valid and wise tactic.
I can buy that.
I just wince a little at “grant” (bailout).

White kids who apply at HBCs can reap minority status, too. I checked it out : )

I like to think of it as stealin’ what they stole back. I would rather our tax dollars go back to the tax payers who earned them, but being allocated to that message is the next best thing.
Soon we’ll get into colleges where we don’t qualify, get scholarships and jobs we don’t deserve, etc.
I won’t to become one of those “hate crime” protected classes!
