Okay I had to do it. This is positively ALARMING! As many of you, I'm sure know already....PWIs aren't req'd to deliniate a certain number of available spots to minorities anymore. This can be tragic for our people. The reason so many of us were able to climb out (the hood, ghetto w/e) was becasue doors were forced open for us. Much of the middle class of America (our parents basically) was able to better themselves on the backs of affirmative action. Now dont get me wrong, I understand why the lawsuit was made, and I understand that it might have been looked at as racist (or bacwards racism???) but I definitely think something needs to be put in place where these huge monopolizing 'white giants' are somehow policed. I don't want us (blacks) to have to go back to how things were.
I know it's kinda too late... but I've been kinda sorta regretting not choosing to attend an HBCU next year...but hey...if I don't like UGA I WILL be transferring to HOWARD (my first love lol), Hampton, or Morehouse the following year...

Did you get a free ride to UGA?
I got the GA HOPE scholarship which pays tuition+fees...and a small book allowance...
it's all part of the political correctness that's rendering us immobile. it's not "PC" to talk about the fact that racism still exists and that all races are not on level playing fields. things are hard to say, but they have to be said.
Correct me if I'm wrong but it was my understanding that private PWIs still have to enforce Affirmative Action & I thought for the most part A-A has helped white females more than it's helped African Americans when it comes to college enrollment. I may be wrong, so...
