I know a city inspector who fell and sued the city, does that count?
That said, todays system dooms minorities to fail.
Look, I'm not good at science or medicine, but just because I want to be a doctor doesn't mean I should be.
Sticking me in med school, where I can fail out does not help me, and worse, passing me through med school, only hurts others (you know why I'm using this example).
If some kid should be in a community college, where he has a better chance to make it, good, but sending him to a university where he takes somone elses spot, and then fails out, hurts not 1 but 2 folks.

Agreed.
The straight white Euro male ends up having the do the whole thing on his own, with loans from everyone, working two jobs, summer, etc., on a 7-year plan.
But in the end he owes NO ONE and no one OWNS him. He has acquired backbone and learned to be an AmerI CAN.
Women and minorities who use the system will have to face, sooner or later, the "what goes around comes around" deal...or become Democrats and be in denial or convince themselves that thhe "deserved" it, based on only their race and/or gender. That is, they learn that being women and minorities they are helpless victims who will always and always need help from Uncle Sam...and will NEVER get off the government nipple. They continue to keep themselves losers, on the plantation, under the thumb and whip of the "massah."
