Thats too bad

[Tijeras_Slim]

What are they supposed to do, go down to Watts in a van and shanghai people?

[keithtoo]

When they say 'minority' they don't mean Chinese, Vietnamese, Asian Indian, Jewish, Presbyterian, Baptist, or Irish do they?

[camle]

need to put more minorities in there so the rich white kids can see what they really look like.

They dropped competitive entrance criteria for Back and Hispanics years ago. Berkeley wasonce one of the Best schols in the world, bar none. Now it has almost turned into just another state university. It is a sad turn of affairs.

I was ready to add a quip until I saw the photog's name,

who knows this person's agenda?

Maybe minorities are going where they can get a real education

[AQGeiger]

Are the protesters mentioning that, while the numbers of blacks at UC Berkley have decreased, they total number of blacks enrolled and graduating from the UC system of schools is increasing? Probably not.

Walter Williams has written some very good articles on this subject that explain what the liberals fail to mention in their caterwauling.

I'm really hoping that we manage to get the affirmative action issue on the ballot here in Michigan. BAMN is trying to block it for obvious reasons. The tie in to the memogate scandal is important here as well.

How about if they pay for it; instead of the taxpayer.

Perhaps all the other advantages that Berzerkely heaps on "diverse" students isn't enough to compete with the call of the Street for these valuab-ler than others group of peoples.

When I went to college, I never had a race-based "Recruitment and Retention Center" dedicated to keeping me in school, if I flunked out, I got drafted. And that's just what I did.

If preferential admission policies, an entire academic discipline dedicated to serving the needs of "minorities", and free ride scholarships aren't enough, just what in hell do they want?

I expect this group of idiots to start demanding paychecks for minority students who deign to grace Berkeley's halls of diverstity.

Berkeley - it used to be "the best and the brightest"; well, now at least it's among the "most colorful".

Let's see the numbers on minority applicants...willing to bet there's a decline in numbers there too.

[Bikers4Bush]

Did it ever dawn on them to consider that just maybe there are more qualified candidates?

[Old Sarge]

In the interests of promoting multiculturaldiversitytolerance, Sarge iwll not be posting a caption to this photo.

But, if he DID, it would be something like THIS:

BLACK GIRL: "I'm really glad to see all these progressive-minded free thinkers out here protesting today, to show support in our struggle..."
WHITE GUY: "WHAT protest?!? I'm just trying to hook up with you later, Momma..."

It's going to get a lot worse. Take a look at your local high school. It ain't cool to be an achiever.

[wai-ming]

Students protest drop in minority enrollment at Berkelely.

What hypocrites! This is the same university that denies admission to well-qualified Asian students based on their own form of "racial profiling."

What they should be protesting is the drop in students who deserve to be there.

[YourAdHere]

Where can I go for my edumacation?

[valkyrieanne]

So let them drop out of school & give their seat to a minority person.
