Absolutely not. Why does it always have to jump to race? I was trying to say I do not know her cultural, religious, economic... background. All I know is her GPA (I didn't even really pay attention to her name - would have guessed she was of middle eastern discent). But we all know that there are scholarships made available to people for things other than grades, or in conjunction with them. It could be a scholarship through her church, cultural heritage, an organization she or her parents belong to, her parents income... This is why I said I didn't know what it was, nor do I really care.
From her grades she seems to be an extremely smart girl. It sucks that she will not get to be valedictorian (I do think they should try to fight it), but I think she will be all right either way as far as funding college.
