I look at this in another way not mentioned in the article. To have a Caucasian/White club and make it official (that's the important part, it has to be approved) these other "ethnic" clubs could see the automatic "tension" that it produces. The fact is, there shouldn't be "ethnic clubs at all on school property. Look at the tension that just the mention of a Caucasian Club has wrought? It should help people to see better that the creation of ANY ethnic club produces resentment and creates tension. All along whites have been told that we are just racist in our attitudes about these clubs. Well, hells bells, we talk about a Caucasian Club and all hell breaks loose. It seems the opponents of the Caucasian Club aren't racist but whites who protest against any ethnic club are. The fact remains that it isn't resentment because of ethnicity...it's resentment over special treatment and the feeling of being left out. It's as simple as that.

Instead of a “Caucasian Club”, she should have started a club for students of European heritage. It’s more accurate, and I doubt anyone would have objected to the “United Students of European Heritage” or the ”Euro-American Student/Youth Society“ (EASY).

I'm still scratching my head. When I was in school, the only "clubs" we had were for photography, target shooting, archery, math and science, history, the various European languages, etc. Never, EVER did anyone think of starting up an ethnic "club." The political correctness crowd has been using this "club" idea to further Balkanize Americans. A very sad day, indeed...
