The Multi-Cultural Student Union's members are circulating a petition to try to force RWU to defund the Hawk's Right Eye. They have already taken to the dorms with their petition on the grounds that the White scholarship is offensive. Um...Free speech and tolerance?
Not to mention that HRE and the White scholarship are but faintly related; whereas HRE is funded by RWU, the scholarship is privately donated money.
TOPICS: News/Current Events; US: Rhode Island
KEYWORDS: academia; campus; censorship; hre; msu; multiculturalism; rogerwilliamsu; rwucr; scholarship
They can't stand us! This only makes our scholarship more famous.

Never, never give up.
You are fighting the good fight and have no idea how many other students are being forced out of apathy and actually thinking about a controversial issue for once in their lives, instead of just assimilating the leftist propaganda the school spoon feeds.

I wish they would put this scholarship side by side with the UNCF applications. IF they want to show absurdity by parity then show parity. Display them side by side.

I've heard that the head of the Rhode Island Republican Party has already disassociated herself from your organization and the local talk radio host has said some pretty harsh things ...I've got to learn to turn that radio off quicker after Rush's program....
James what you don't understand about RI is that even the Republican's are actually Liberal Democrats.

Make a scholarship available to blacks only - no prob.
Make a scholarship available to Hispanics only - no prob.
Make a scholarship available to homosexuals only - no prob.
Make a scholarship available to women only - no prob.
Make a scholarship available to WHITES only - BIG PROBLEM.
Am I the only one who detects a double standard here?
