That is what “black studies” classes and such are for as well; I’ve seen the lost looks in their eyes when they are in integrated classes. After the first couple of semesters you would never see them anymore; they either retreated to the safe space of minority studies or dropped out...

That's why "minority studies" is creeping into the mainstream freshman-level elective classes. Example: the University of Alabama has a freshman composition class which, when you read the syllabus, turns out to be a "history of rap and hip-hop music" class. Not surprisingly, the "professor" recently moved to Tuscaloosa from the Birmingham campus, where she taught *only* minority studies classes.

All she did was take one of those classes and repackage it to disguise it as a Comp 101 class. The son of a friend of mine is at Bama and sent his dad a link to that class info, just to see his reaction.

Those classes are for the football and basketball players.

Whether they run up debt or just have us pay for it, they are just wasting time and “playing college” - just as unemployable when they graduate as when they entered...
