The name of the university is racist on the face.

Personally, I believe in the “Freedom of Association.” It’s too bad our Constitution does not allow for that.

The Constitution does, it's the Civil Rights Act that doesn't.

“Diversity Advisory Board”

Why does that make the hair on the back of my neck stand up?”

Because you are a rational person?
These people are undoing decades of work.
They are falling for the dems plan: wrap old stuff up in nice paper with a bow and watch people fight for it.

Blacks, academia, and liberals are setting race relations back more than 50 years.

Racially segregated free rides is what they’re after. Ivy League, my a$$.

Correct, it is all a racket and a scam, free rides are seen as reparations. The more nasty attitude these racist jerks show, the more free rides they get. It's all about being a seething nasty a$$ while taking "The Man's" tuition and housing+food money. Free textbooks too.

Arjee Restar, a graduate student who sits on the Diversity Advisory Board, said the “lack of events that are centered around students of color” has led to lower participation rates in the past.

Guessing that in his case, “of color” might mean Indian? So he only wants to associate with students who have more melanin? Surely he doesn’t have cultural similarities to darker Hispanics, or African Americans? So he is only focused on skin color, and this is somehow the university’s problem??

I assume the darker hued meetups will exclude pale people. Would there be pale students gathering. And excluding those with additional melanin?

And remember. These are COLLEGE GRADUATE snowflakes. They have presumably somehow made it through high school and a four year college, possibly with other students who don’t look identical to themselves. And yet they still can’t handle groups that aren’t solid one skin tone.

Oh My God! What a bunch of LOSERS!

Whatever you do in life as a parent I would suggest to not send your children to these schools.

If the public schools they've already attended didn't screw them up then going to this school will be the final dumbing down of your children.

Well, as long as it’s equal. I mean, we can’t expect them to compete in a desegregated world. Right??? /s

Just astonishing to watch.

It’s called ‘networking’.

Ostracized students should stage a sit in at the lunch counter.

I couldn’t agree more.

In the early ‘60s just before the Civil Rights Act my wife who enlisted to become a WAC and a black friend of hers arrived in Anniston, AL because of being stationed at FT. McClellan.

They went into a cafe (which was segregated) for lunch and my wife went into the black side to be with her friend. The gentleman behind the counter politely told my wife he couldn’t serve her and she’d have to go to the white side, they were both from CA and we had no such thing there.

That has always been a reminder to the both of us about segregation.

Segregation was bad in 1954 and good now? Someone help me out.

This is nothing new. They had segregated dining facilities at my college in the Seventies. It didn’t come from the white students; the black students demanded a separate blacks-only area to eat, so they gave them their own dining room.
