White Bread

Filed in archive Campus Life by Mark on February 18, 2004

Ah, those rapscallions at Roger Williams are at it again. Student Republicans at the Rhode Island university are offering a scholarship for which only white students can apply. To receive the $250 you must write an Essaylinks discussing "why you are proud of your white heritage" and include a photo to "confirm whiteness."

Of course, this ruse is meant to expose the inequities of reserving scholarships for minority students. The group wants all scholarships to recognize merit, not race.

Good motive, bad strategy.
