Western Washington University sent a questionnaire to students asking them for advice on how the administration could succeed at making sure that in future years, “we are not as white as we are today.”
The question notes that WWU’s racial make up does not perfectly reflect the nation at large, and asks students to consider strategies that other universities have used to focus on skin color as the paramount indicator of a student-applicant’s worth.
The president of WWU has stated that his explicit goal is to reduce the white population on campus, according to Campus Reform.
“I’ve said before and I’ll say it again, that we as a faculty and staff and student body, as an administration, if we 10 years from now are as white as we are today, we will have failed as a university,” said Bruce Shepard, president of WWU, in a 2012 address...

If you can self-identify your gender why not your color and ethnicity?
I now see myself as a mauve pacific islander of Norwegian Urdu uni-sexual ambidextrous disposition. I may decide to be something else tomorrow...
Excellent idea! If it was any other race they announced they wanted “less of,” you know members of that race would be protesting that they feel unwelcome, it’s a hostile environment for them, etc. Let all the white students say as much and leave. Let the school wallow in wonderful, vibrant diversity without Evil Whitey!
If you can choose your own gender these days, why can’t you choose your own race?
Jerry Rivers managed it. Personally I’ve made a lot of mileage here on FR as Guillermo el Taladro. As an honorary conquistador nobody dares to cut off my po
One of the goals of the left is to eliminate White Christians, after taking all their money.
The money would be given to dark skinned people.
It is already happening. Whitey isn’t having a lot of kids, because Whitey has no money because Whitey’s money is going to people who don’t work and have a lot of kids.
We can make it simple for them .....Jews are white....so they can hire some professional Brownshirts to go with the amateur Brownshirts they probably already have patrolling campus
WE have got to put an end to the race based NAZI attitude that lives in academia..
As the earliest hominid fossils were found there, why not?
See, we’re all African-Americans.
I’m plaid and just parachuted in from Pluto. Can I apply for admission?
If everyone filled out every questionaire as being black, muslim, transgender, this insidious state-sanctioned racial discrimation would grind to a halt. Let them prove otherwise by pulling out skin-tone charts. measure noses with calipers. and research geneologies like the effing nazis they are.
Their standards are already low.
Most of the clinically insane people in the US work in Universities.
They’re racists. Next.
That’s an extremely good point. If people, in spite of their God-given chromosomes, can self-identify as any “gender” they choose, then it should an even simpler matter to self-identify as any race we choose, especially as we’ve been told over and over that “race is a social construct”. (That idea is tacitly ignored when dealing with medical issues, amongst other things. It’s also ignored when to ignore it works to the benefit of anyone except whites).
They would really be in a quandary if they had to resort to that, since “race is a social construct”, unless there are “too many whites” in a given location.
Well, then, if he wants more blacks at his University, he needs to make more room on his campus for them. And to increase the pool of black college students, he needs to speak out for young black people to stay in school. Let’s see how well that works out for him, among the race hustlers.
Put the onus on them to “prove” who is “black” and who is “white”.
Up till now they simply rely on what you think you are.
Force the race hustlers to put all their cards on the table.
Enjoy your Nuremburg laws.
Since the present consensus is that we’re all descended from Africans, go fot it.
Earth to parents STOP paying tuition to colleges that allow administrative clowns like WWU president to allow these kind of statements against the very people paying their salaries,
