Just for the sake of argument, lets say you are Jewish and you belong to a Synagogue that only allows Jewish tradition an cultural services. Now the Government steps in and says you have to allow Christians and Islam into your services. How long do you think your culture and traditional way of worshiping will endure? Now we also know that your Synagogue does not receive any government money to survive. Not very fair, huh?

One poster says most students have very little Hawaiian blood so the whole situation is absurd and not a real leg-up and charity for Hawaiians which was the original intent. At this point this 6 billion dollar trust should benefit all Hawaiians and not just Hawaiians with a few drops of native blood. I'm sure a few genuine natives attend these schools but the bulk of students have just a bit of Hawaiian native ancestry.
