(Anyone remember the reason for Forced busing?)

I thought that the more whites you had sitting beside you in schools .. made you a smarter Negro?

Western Washington University sent a questionnaire to students asking them for advice on how the administration could succeed at making sure that in future years, “we are not as white as we are today.”

The question notes that WWU’s racial make up does not perfectly reflect the nation at large, and asks students to consider strategies that other universities have used to focus on skin color as the paramount indicator of a student-applicant’s worth.

The president of WWU has stated that his explicit goal is to reduce the white population on campus, according to Campus Reform.

Ok........NOT!

Skin color ain't real reliable in doing race or culture. Many Hispanics are def "white", most quadroon "Black" people have pasty white skin and many Asians do too. OTOH: many anglo whites can be pretty damn brown in color like most Greeks or Italians, some Germans, Arabs, Iranians and so on.

Put in big bold letters at the top of the university admission application:

"Whites need not apply"

It would be more fair to discriminate on the basis of socio-economic status than race - wealthy blacks don't need a hand up. But practically speaking we need to do anything we can to change the culture of African-Americans to something more like the culture of recent black immigrants, who have lower crime rates and healthier cultures.

They need to change the administration at WWU. They are funded by the state and Washington's demographics aren't the same as the USA average...not even close.

I have a friend whose daughter went there last year and she considered herself a "liberal." After a year at WWU, she left because she considered it just on ongoing ultra liberal brainwashing experience.

I'm a transrace person. I'm 100% white but identify as black. I demand everyone at that school pretend I am black.

Point.

Strange that colleges consider race more than important than people want to go to college...
