  • Good article on affirmative action and George Bush...

  • Somehow, we still tolerate each other. Eventually this will be the only forum left.

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>well that's the sort of thing I'm against-- these fucking minority quotas for colleges. Why can't they just remove the race question on applications and when up for review each applicant's name is replaced by a number. No discrimination, no damn quotas</div>
