people who are labeled as "minority" (except asians because they are smart and dont need help) can get free school based on their low application rate as a race/ethnicity. public schools get special government grants for being "diverse" and use these programs to get more government money.
sorry. I'm a minority (red head and left handed, less than 1% of the worlds population) and I got nothing for school. feelsbadman.jpg

being in miami is a plus for u, because if ur white and have darker hair u can just lie and say ur half cuban, possibly even full blooded cuban. works for me all the time, and im constantly mistaken for a light skinned hispanic. what are they gonna tell you? no you're not half cuban? they can't prove sh-it. besides ive seen cubans and other hispanics here that are two-three shades lighter than me, yet they are considered a non-white minority. so welcome to the real world, where lying and cheating gets you ahead. use ur location in miami to ur advantage.

lol ya but the school is a top notch grad school in the science field. You basically only get admitted if you have a stipend. Its not like the regular U of Miami where you just dick around having everything payed for and get a joke degree. It pisses me off that some guy could have a 3.5 and get in while i bust my a$$ for a 3.9+ and not get in. (yes mad)

Every scholarship that my school gives out that they claim are open for all students to apply for are only available to minorities (serious).

All the Research 1 uni's do but do you realize how competitive it is? If i dont have published research, a high GPA, great GRE scores, and good recommendations I could get fuked over. So even just one stipend is a big deal when they only give out 5-10 a year at the school for my field.

ummm because clearly minorities still do not get the same opportunities in this country as white folk
not srs
no racist but the hispanic/black community needs to man the **** up and move on
every other immigrant is prospering in this country and not complaining
groups like the NAACP are not needed anymore and its existence is only further isolating the black population
everyone wants equality only when it suits them and on their terms
women fall in that category as wellFirst immortality, then the bitches
