    One of my siblings went to college. They actually got bumped OUT of a course they were confirmed in because there wasn't enough "diversity" in the class. They rose hell over it and got to stay. You can't tell me that's fair.

    Of course it's not, but it isn't intended to be. Optics is more important. :rolleyes:

    Apparently it is a lot more common than we think. If they had gotten booted out, that would have meant staying another semester for just ONE class. Not really fair for someone to put their life on hold for another 6-12 months because of that!

    Those who work, receive.

    Those who don't want to work and thereby receive nothing become jealous of those who possess.

    That's absolutely absurd.! IMO, that is the exact definition of racism to take a student out of a class based solely on skin color for diversity reasons.. :mad:

    It should be the best of the best gets into a class to learn, or the best skilled in a certain profession got the job.. If I need open heart surgery I don't care what color the Doc is, I want the best one. Not the one who got into school, or hired at a hospital because they needed diversity! Such BS going on in our world. Maybe I should pipe down before I get into trouble..
