When will they start complaining that the "Honor Roll" doesn't contain enough minority students? Oops, I forgot that requires the GPA to go with it rather than straight percentage of enrollment.

They already have; the result was, predictably, grade inflation.

The NAACP continues to perpetuate the welfare class by trying to extort on the behalf (and on the backs) of black people, while simultaneously telling them in so many words that there is no need to excel. And there isn't any need to excel as long as whitey is paying the ransom.

Low expectations breed low results.

As an aside, the National Honor Society accepts those who meet the criteria of grades, community service, character, and leadership. And also those who file a lawsuit. I recall a year or two ago, a couple of girls (I don't recall if they were minorities or not) who did not meet the criteria, sued and therefore were admitted.

And the thing is that they are insulting their own people by their actions because they are essentially telling them that they are indeed too stupid to excel in a white world but that's okay because we will see to it that you don't have to.
