He epic failed by modifying the requirements to only a quarter white. As in, he's defeating his own stated purpose by opening it up too much and becoming another scholarship where "majority" white males can be discriminated against. This just shows that the whole thing is kind of being done on the fly.
It's a private organization and from what I see, the colleges aren't affiliated with choosing the recipients at all. It's no different than me lining up a bunch of dudes, telling them to take their shirts off, picking the hottest one and giving him a $500 check made out to wherever he goes to college.
In other words, it's his money. He can do whatever the hell he wants with it. Is he being a racist dick? Yes, maybe, but that's his prerogative. This is FAR from the silliest scholarship ever - one of the scholarships given out at my high school specified that the winner must have "a zest for life."
