Butler University has awarded endowed scholarships on the basis of race and gender, The College Fix has learned.
Butler removed the listing of all endowed scholarships, totaling approximately $2.4 million, from the university website before the 2013-2014 school year after inquiry from a parent of a prospective student.
The Scholarships
The “race-conscious” scholarships Butler has offered include scholarships that are only awarded to African-American students, an award limited to “a female student of Hispanic descent,” an award limited to “a woman of Indian descent” (unless Butler cannot find one) and an award that declares, “Preference will be given to Caucasian undergraduates enrolled in the College of Business.” The whites-preferred scholarship was created after the benefactor’s wife died in 2002, according to literature from Butler’s College of Business.

Awarding Scholarships on Basis of Race = prima facie Racism.
Time from some class action law suits.
...because removing information from the web-site means the information is gone...
Morons.
And, my son is exactly the type of person you would want as a doctor if your life depended on it.
We *all* will be paying a dear price for this affirmative action crap.
That's what we did for the presidency.
Oh Crap. The Hispanic and Black scholarships are EVERYWHERE.
What’s really unusual is the one for a Caucasian.
They only mentioned it to imply that there is some sort of balance, but that’s nonsense. The vast majority of the “underprivileged” scholarships specifically target non-white ethnic or racial groups.
I notice, once again, the only MSM running this story is Fox News.
since these were endowed schollies I didn’t know they weren’t allowed.
Endowed scholarships have been around for over a hundred yers
and notice nearly all ethnic racial groups have had someone endow a scholarship for them so it isn’t like only white people had access to endowed shcollies
If I want to give my money for a scholarship for only strawberry blonde smart women I should be able to
“Time for some class action law suits.”
Yes, but also time for alternatives to university education. The mission and intent of universities was noble, at one time, and many faculty still have this intent - but the institutions themselves in too many instances have lost their way.
They will now be sued real bad and they will lose!!
Don’t worry, those underqualified doctors can always get work at the VA hospitals. And that isn’t sarcasm.
Time from some class action law suits.
Almost time for a little civil disobedience. Enough of this BS. They’re a bunch of racist and sexist liberal punks.
And they must have really big hooters, too! LOL.
Do they really have enough applicants of Armenian, Azerbaijani, Georgian, or Ossetian descent to limit a scholarship to Caucasians?
A friend of mine, caucasian female, has been having the same problem with veterinary school for the past few years now.

We ALREADY ARE.
“Removing information from the website” = we know we’re in the wrong and PO’d that we got caught.
Tell her to just click a minority box and dare anyone to challenge her.
Pull an Elizabeth Warren! Falsely claim to be a minority based on imagined hearsay. What can they say?
