Caucasion students Be Aware. This is a very pro African American and pro football school. Students and professors will treat you negative if you are not in one of these groups. Many discussions in your classes will turn into discussions about cultural diversity and minorities/minority issues no matter what subject you are actually talking about. If you show any concern as to why this is or try to question it and you are caucasion-you will quickly be reminded by students and professors about civil rights, slavery, overcrowding in prisons due to white law enforcement only arresting minorities etc. I was a victim of racism daily for being caucasion and was told things like "how does it feel Eastern Eauropean"-apparently that is the new name for "white people". And things like "must be rough being white". When I complained to the professors, I was told that minorities were not able to voice their opinions for many years and now they can and I should learn to be more culturally sensitive. And many professors would go on rants about how its time for minorities to be heard. I do believe in equality for ALL, thats why Im a MSW student. I do not believe it means holding down others to get there. Two wrongs do not make a right!
