Boy, it sure is interesting to see how threads mutate after you post an article.
When I posted this, I was interested in seeing whether anyone would discuss the issue of the white student(s) in the NPHC sorority mentioned in the piece. There seems to be a lot of bandwidth used on GC to debate Blacks in NPC/NIC orgs, so I just wanted to see if the reverse is true.
The statements the students made about Alcorn made me upset, not because they were racist, but because there are a lot of American students who would KILL for a free college education - at Alcorn or anywhere else - and be a bit more gracious about it. Of course, maybe the sentiment expressed in the article is an example of cross-cultural communication gone haywire, who knows.
