Scholarship For White Males Only

<p>I actually recall a scholarship open to whites around 2005 (maybe?) that was offered by a Hispanic professor who thought the minority-based scholarships were unchallenged racism. I heard about it on the radio (can’t find an article about it now). It was news specifically because the man funding it was Hispanic. </p>

<p>I’m not above taking a scholarship for Polish girls. I look for them all the time. I haven’t been oppressed at all for being Polish, though. Neither was my mother. But for some reason, Polish people feel like helping other Polish people get through college, whether or not there was hardship. I think that’s what’s offensive about it. It’s not the discrimination, it’s the idea that these people only want to help others of their own heritage succeeed, simply because they’re of the same heritage.</p>
