Okay, if you had read my entire post and not taken what I said out of context you would understand that what I was saying was
#1 would you want to be hired because you were a minority and for not other reason?
and #2- yes there are scholarships available to people that are minorities for no reason other than that. At WKU there is an application for minority students only (not females, ethnicity only) and the minimum gpa required is a 2.0 or a 20 on an ACT to get a scholarship, where as the application for anyone caucasian requires a 3.0 or above and minimum ACT of 28. My roommate working in the admissions office and told me almost on a daily basis that there were people with full ride scholarships that had 1.9 GPAs or whatever and had a 20 on the ACT and got full rides because they were a minority. Now.. this is ONE university, a whole university, btw.

As for the glass ceiling I never said anything about that. There is a glass ceiling in almost every company where women and minorities are stuck at.

AND I do believe that I said someone that wanted to take a few free years in school that was lazy- not just everyone. I know of minorities that have received scholarships because they were outstanding students, and no other reason. I think I would be much more proud of myself if I was held to the standards (SEE ABOVE IF YU DONT UNDERSTAND) than if I got a scholarship because I was a minority. But maybe I just hold myself to that standard.
