A student group from Roger Williams University in Bristol, RI is offering a scholarship for which only white students are eligible. Intended to parody minority scholarships, it has apparently caused quite an uproar. Props to these folks for fighting the good fight. Maybe one day we can do away with race and gender-based scholarships altogether and base them solely on merit and need, but the Morlocks will probably see to it that we won't. One of these days "equal" is going to mean "equal." weekly rant: over.
In other news, two town names are apparently causing two different types of trouble. Firstly, PETA has a problem with Slaughterville, OK, and a town slogan for Climax, MN (further down the page) is apparently too suggestive. Regardless, I think everyone should bring a friend to Climax. It seems like a nice town, and might be a good place to summer.
back to the grind,
