If you don't identify with your minority status, you shouldn't claim it. That's ridiculous. She's not adding any diversity value to the school, and that's why she's getting her scholarship. I got a large AA bump, so I do appreciate it, but for those that it's valid for. Argh.

You know what really makes me mad about the whole AA thing is minorities who claim it but should have no right at all to its benefits. I know a black kid going to Harvard this year, he got in everywhere he applied with lower numbers then mine (I did not claim urm for my own reasons) and his dad is a Dr. and his mom is an executive for a big oil company. He went to private schools his whole life and never had to want for anything. AA was not meant for him. What about the white guy who had to struggle out of the poor south to be successful, now he gets bumped because this ass hole gets preference. Make no sense to me
