A religious studies professor at Texas Christian University sent an email offering special tutoring to “STUDENTS OF COLOR ONLY.”
An anonymous student in Santiago Piñón’s “Understanding Religion: Society and Culture” class received the following email from the professor and forwarded it to Inside Higher Ed:
“At the beginning of the semester I usually like to invite all my students of color to get together and discuss the challenges they may face during the semester. However, the time slipped by and I didn’t get a chance. So, I would like to ask if you are interested in a get together on Monday afternoon? We can also discuss the exam that is coming up, if you want. I don’t mind if this would turn out to be a study session for my STUDENTS OF COLOR ONLY.”
The student believes that Piñón sent his offer of assistance to students with Hispanic-sounding last names. The student said she has a Hispanic last-name, but is only one-quarter Hispanic.
“I straight up just got segregated by my own teacher. I’m 75 [percent] white,” she wrote on Facebook, according to Inside Higher Ed.
One of the students who received the email notified university administrators. Piñón later announced that the study session was cancelled, and it did not take place on Monday....

What about Albino African students?
Moving out of the US is my plan eventually.
This email sounds to me like a teacher hitting on a student.
I just checked my skin and it is light brown. Some might consider me white but my skin definitely is not white
so called “whites” have several colors of hair, have pink lips, blue, green or brown eyes, and their skin can be anything from very white to sallow to brown....

“And people wonder why whites expatriate to overseas. “
I don’t get what you mean.
Most expats go to countries that are majority people of color like thailand, phillipines, costa rica, belize, etc.
And the USA is still mostly run by whites. Granted a lot of them are liberal wacho whites or union whites or govt. whites, but still white.
APPY
Oh just JEEZ LOUIZZ
Ain’t this embarrassing!
Ok, its the system, not you.
ROTF!
Why can you say people of color, but can’t say colored people?
When I spend time in the sun I turn brown
When I spend too much time in the sun I turn red
When I get embarrassed I blush pink
When I get sick I turn a little green
Once I was jaundiced and I turned yellow
When I get really cold I turn a little blueish
So tell me, Am I colored?
Does a very light beige qualify?
White Males are the only people on the planet that just naturally know how to do everything, and if they don’t know how to do it, they are the only peoples equipped to be able to figure it out themselves.

Everyone else should probably feel lucky. He sounds like an idiot.
