Brown University will host a series of racially segregated lunches over the course of the semester to help graduate students of color settle into the university.
The RESET Series, as reported by The College Fix, began last semester to increase minority student participation and retention rates.
The lunchtime discussions, which began again in February, focus on topics selected by new graduate students of color based on a survey they took last summer about some of their concerns with the graduate school.
Arjee Restar, a graduate student who sits on the Diversity Advisory Board, said the lack of events that are centered around students of color has led to lower participation rates in the past.

The name of the university is racist on the face.
The Constitution does, it's the Civil Rights Act that doesn't.

Why does that make the hair on the back of my neck stand up?”
Because you are a rational person?
These people are undoing decades of work.
They are falling for the dems plan: wrap old stuff up in nice paper with a bow and watch people fight for it.
Blacks, academia, and liberals are setting race relations back more than 50 years.
Correct, it is all a racket and a scam, free rides are seen as reparations. The more nasty attitude these racist jerks show, the more free rides they get. It's all about being a seething nasty a$$ while taking "The Man's" tuition and housing+food money. Free textbooks too.
Guessing that in his case, of color might mean Indian? So he only wants to associate with students who have more melanin? Surely he doesnt have cultural similarities to darker Hispanics, or African Americans? So he is only focused on skin color, and this is somehow the universitys problem??
I assume the darker hued meetups will exclude pale people. Would there be pale students gathering. And excluding those with additional melanin?
And remember. These are COLLEGE GRADUATE snowflakes. They have presumably somehow made it through high school and a four year college, possibly with other students who dont look identical to themselves. And yet they still cant handle groups that arent solid one skin tone.

Well, as long as it’s equal. I mean, we can’t expect them to compete in a desegregated world. Right??? /s
Just astonishing to watch.
It’s called ‘networking’.
Ostracized students should stage a sit in at the lunch counter.
So when is the straight, white guy lunch?
A tip for reading resumes from recent college graduates, if it’s Brown flush it down.
I couldn’t agree more.
In the early ‘60s just before the Civil Rights Act my wife who enlisted to become a WAC and a black friend of hers arrived in Anniston, AL because of being stationed at FT. McClellan.
They went into a cafe (which was segregated) for lunch and my wife went into the black side to be with her friend. The gentleman behind the counter politely told my wife he couldn’t serve her and she’d have to go to the white side, they were both from CA and we had no such thing there.
That has always been a reminder to the both of us about segregation.
Segregation was bad in 1954 and good now? Someone help me out.
This is nothing new. They had segregated dining facilities at my college in the Seventies. It didn’t come from the white students; the black students demanded a separate blacks-only area to eat, so they gave them their own dining room.
So when is the straight, white guy lunch?
Every February 29th.
Why does that make the hair on the back of my neck stand up?

Brown University brings back Jim Crow for lunches.
Is that why they call it Brown U?
