All you have to be is dark-skinned, and it’s yours.
This is illegal and unconstitutional.
First, you’d have to go back and show some relation to one of those 272 individuals....possibly faking your ‘resume’ to achieve this.

Elizabeth Warren could give a seminar on how to fake it.
It is such cheap "virtue" to apologize for the sale of the university's slaves by two priests who probably died 150 years ago and more. Would this leftist imbecile who is president of Georgetown have preferred that the university keep its slaves?
“Good point. My ancestors were slaves to the Romans. Gib me some money now.”
If you can demonstrate that Georgetown placed your Roman ancestors up on an auction block and sold them to the highest bidder, they will likely let you into the school.
Their ears were burning.
DeGoia will be the death of Georgetown. He is so politically correct. Georgetown no more needs to apologize for once having slaves, and then selling them off, than any other major institution that has been around for a long time. We had a civil war to end it, hundreds of thousands of people died to end it. More than half of GUs students fought for the north, which is why the school's colors are blue and gray.
It is pure pandering.
They claim that the 40 percent non-Catholic is for diversity, but I think that is only partly true. They need full-freight-paying students of whatever faith or none in order to give out scholarships to many. They are one of the ten colleges with the largest endowments, as most probably know. I’m not surprised to learn that they are flouting the Supreme Court by purposely picking descendants of slaves.
Yep; follow the money.
That’s why colleges, including ostensibly Catholic universites, ban drinking especially in the adjoining towns, but think coed living and sex in the dorms is just fine. If they drink and get into trouble in the town, the onus is on the university. But if they get pregnant, their families are the only ones impacted financially.
Who cares. This entire issue is utter BS. Of course I am sure you agree with that.
