Thank you @aeromom and to all the other posters who helped! To those who seem more focused on talking about politics…I have nothing against white people in general, just the racist ones. If you’re not one of the racist ones I see no reason for you to be getting angry. 
Also, I should add that @atlanta68 replied to my post three times, once in this forum and twice via private messages (guess which messages were less civil!) and he demanded I apologize for linking him to the comments in the article. Just for the record, I’m not ‘linking’ him to anything. I simply said you’re using an article that a lot of blatantly racist people agree with and enjoyed. Which is true, and makes ya look bad. Enough said.
Like someone else said, let’s try to steer this back in the direction of talking about the UA scholarship. I now know more than enough about the scholarship, but perhaps someone else can add useful commentary for other students who may want more information. Thanks!
