I’ll bet getting a pizza delivered to that building is going to get pretty difficult down the road.

LOL...This should be fun. I guess they don’t want to assimilate with American Culture. Kinda like the Muslim stance.

I don’t see why this would help them graduate.

What exactly do “forward-thinking” idiots think of?

>>A logical extension of “Africana Studies” as a major. They get their own courses, already, so why not fully segregate them into their own college like Morehouse.<<

Let’s give them their own country where they can create their own government and laws and everything will be a Black Liberal Paradise!

It isn’t like that has been tried before or anything.

Of course. Puppetry degrees are right up there with basket weaving, Graffiti art, Barbequing chicken for Fun and Profit, Rhyming Jive, Hot-Wiring Vehicles, Undetected Breaking and Entering, Gravity Defying break dancing and Pit Bull training

A blacks-only dorm is not racist.

A whites-only dorm would be racist.

If puppetry is a major for whites, what the heck will they teach blacks that’s easier?!
