    But Adjei-Brenyah, the president of the African Students Association at Columbia, argued that drawing an admissions distinction based on suffering under slavery is false. "If you're going to make a slavery case, people from the Caribbean were also displaced and enslaved. How do you begin to differentiate?" he said.

    is this person insane??? we didn't inslave them so how do "they" deserve the same treatment?

    I think that schools see a black person and put a check mark on the paper... as bad as that is. they should pick and choose who they "give" the apportunity to learn a there school.

      There shouldn't even be a race section on applications. How can you discriminate when you don't even know the ethnicity of the person. Either way Aff. Action is retarded and I just love the fact that everyones getting butthurt over it backfiring on them.

        Funny story.

        I agree, leave race check box out of college admissions. Who cares what color/creed someone is. Admit them based on their credentials.

            I think affirmative action is one of the worst things going. Same with womens lib.

                Homosexuality is a great form of population control (closely following cancer and aids).

                It also helps the chances of ugly people (like you) find attractive mates.
