On Columbus Day, the Swarthmore Indigenous Students Association (SISA) burned the American flag and issued a set of demands, including removal of the flag from campus.
The demands, posted on flyers in the campus dining hall, also called on Swarthmore College to admit and recruit native students, asserting that Swarthmore has consistently had a student body that is less than 1% indigenous, possibly because it does not recruit on any reservations or at any of the Native schools.

They prey on the stupid and the ignorant who know nothing about history.
Ah, I remember what Columbus said that day they raised the American flag over the Santa Maria. It was “Uh, what’s-a dat?”
Who got a bunch of Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert to take IQ tests???
You don’t think these flag burners pay tuition, do you?
Most likely they are getting a full ride.
Hey! Even you, “” , Indigenous Students, are not Indigenous .. Your ancestors camw from east of the Rhine River. Crossing, Siberiu and the Pacific, before you even got to Honduras.
No, add Melania to that list. Not because she is married to Trump, but because she is pretty.
Yeah - probably there on “scholarships.”
You don’t get to demand anything. You get to shut the f*ck up and appreciate the country that people of my generation created and maintained for you.
Oh my. Whatever will the know-it-all libs at this fine school do?
“If don’t like Western Civ then don’t go universities imported from Europe. “
Certainly they can find an indigenous university that was around at the time of Columbus to attend.
Based on an informal survey I did over 50 years ago, approximately 20% of ‘white’ students at a major state university had some American Indian ancestry that they knew of. Studies done even earlier indicated that an even higher percentage of ‘black’ (American Negro, not recent immigrants from Africa or the Caribbean) had known American Indian ancestry. And current studies indicate a very high percentage of European and African ancestry among accepted members of Indigenous American Tribal peoples in the US.
I’m not sure how a thread on woo-woo Injuns burning our flag on Columbus day turned into a thread on jewish intelligence ... but the belief that Ashkenazi Jews are genetically predisposed to higher IQs is a myth or conventional wisdom.

Only if you discount the actual results of IQ tests.
The media seldom mentions the size of these demonstrations in comparison to the whole student body. It would make it quite obvious just how pitifully small they. That would make their coverage of such events to appear as foolish as they are.
Admissions based on the color of ones skin and not the content of their character is RACIST!!!!
Perhaps a Kalahari bushman configured the web site, because it won't load.
Suggest you move to some other nation where you will be happier snowflakes. You will not be missed.
According to their website, they were founded in 1864 and now have an endowment (money stashed in the bank) of over $1.7 Billion.
That is a lot of money from a lot of dead white guys.
Your link doesn’t support your statement:
“It would be hard to overstate how politically incorrect this paper is, [the original paper showing a higher IQ] Steven Pinker, cognitive scientist at Harvard, told The New York Times when the study was published. Nonetheless, he said, its certainly a thorough and well-argued paper.
