A new scholarship created for whitey only.
A student group at Roger Williams University is offering a new scholarship for which only white students are eligible, a move they say is designed to protest affirmative action.
The application for the $250 award requires an essay on “why you are proud of your white heritage” and a recent picture to “confirm whiteness.”
“Evidence of bleaching will disqualify applicants,” says the application, issued by the university’s College Republicans.
Jason Mattera, 20, who is president of the College Republicans, said the group is parodying minority scholarships.
So am I the only one who doesn’t see the funny side?

So would Micheal Jackson be eligible for this?
I don’t see why not… It does ask for a recent picture to prove your “whiteness” so I’d say he’s a shoe in… And I guess he needs the money too *grin*
That really is disturbing!
