A summer accounting program sponsored by a number of major New York universities and designed for high school students does not permit white students to apply.
The program, “Career Opportunities in the Accounting Profession,” is sponsored by the Moynihan Scholarship Fund and the New York State Society of Certified Public Accountants, as well as nine leading New York universities, including five public universities. The course intends to introduce to the accounting profession 250 “promising underrepresented high school students.”
According to Campus Reform:
“In addition to virtual sessions about forensic accounting, interviewing skills, public speaking, networking, and an ‘accounting profession overview’ featuring a panel discussion with experts in the profession.
Nine institutions of higher education in New York — including Ithaca College, Medgar Evers College, Rochester Institute of Technology, St. John’s University, Siena College, SUNY New Paltz, SUNY Oswego, the University at Buffalo, and Westchester Community College — are listed as hosts for the program, which is free of charge for students. . .
Five of the nine schools participating in the program — including Medgar Evers College, SUNY New Paltz, SUNY Oswego, the University at Buffalo, and Westchester Community College — are public universities funded by New York state.”
On the application form for the program, however, applicants are supposed to choose a “race” or ethnicity option with which they identify. Hispanic, Black, Asian, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, and Native American are among the options on the application form. “White,” however, is not even an option.

Well, that will work out well. So they want people who think math is racist and 2+2 does not equal 4 to become accountants. Sounds like the kind of accountants who work for government.
Criminal racism by democrats...again.
If math be raciss (as we all know it is), why would any oppressed minorities want to learn about accounting?
A little black face and declare one identifies as black, would that work?
Easy peasy lawsuit...wish I were a lawyer.
That’s blatant racial discrimination in hiring which is literally spelled out as against the law!
Bet they’ll end up at the IRS. You can never get the same answer from different agents.
This is getting more than ridiculous.
LOL, sounds like the perfect job for them.
The Supremes will get right on it./s
Is someone somewhere going to file a lawsuit?
They will all work for the IRS.
45 years ago I gave my heart and my voice to the Civil Rights movement to put a stop to this kind of crap. And here it comes again from another crop of bigots.
PING!
And this racism is okay?! Shameful.
Interesting, I remember back in the stone age, when I was an undergrad taking Psych 101-A, being told that accounting majors had the highest IQs.
