re: In case you were wondering why LSU is stingy with scholarships

Your average student doesn’t attend these events. You didn’t. I didn’t.

You really shouldn’t be pontificating on this topic if you are that distant to the situation.

Attendance has been required for years, and it’s enforced by putting a lock on your ability to make schedule changes till you do.

The best and brightest conservative Black kids are not coming to LSU ... it's usually the opposite.

If LSU was just attracting these students it wouldn’t be an issue. Any conservative black (not necessarily how they vote) I have known, worked with, or lived around has been like everyone else. There have been no differing standards and no culture clashes. People have similar level jobs and lifestyles, and everyone was earning their way into the neighborhood or elsewhere.

About the only issue is that some still can’t break free from equating a white person criticizing someone who is black or a govt program known to be used by blacks to racism even if they say the same thing to themselves and didn’t need help to get to neighborhood. They don’t want any part of that culture but just can’t let go yet of only blacks should be able to criticize other blacks. It’s not all. They also usually get over it and don’t use it justify retaliation or violence like blacks bringing the culture and complete victimhood with them while using govt programs to move in.

I would not want some hillbillies from the Appalachians or some redneck trailer trash spreading their culture around my neighborhood, schools where my kids go, or my Alma mater so why would it be any different with trash from the black population or be viewed differently by anyone. Thinking that urban black culture is inherently part of blacks and must be promoted to show blacks that they are accepted is what I think is bigoted.
