So Affirmative Action is ok, ... just not the way they've been doing it? Well, it's a start.

ya I dunno what to think about this. As much as Affirmative Action helps get some kids into schools in which they virtually had no chance because of various situations, it's also being somewhat hypocritical because don't we live in a society which is supposed to look beyond race and colour?

Let me put it this way......when I transfer, I'm definitely marking down on the application that I'm Native American :lol:

I'll get a damn letter from the tribal council if I have to, dammit anyways.

I think its whack......the whole idea needs to be dropped. (AA I mean)

Well gee, that fucking helps me now. If they had that in effect two years ago, I'd be harassing Bethany at school all the time. Yesssss.

I saw that white girl with a 3.84 GPA, who thought her life was over because she didn't get in. (I was kind of amused... I just thought it was funny because they never said what she got on the SATs and maybe thats what moved some people ahead of her. Geez!)
