Why do you support giving race based handouts?

How will the fees be assessed/ disbursed?Maybe pro rated based on a 23 and me %. Is this for blacks only or other ethnicities? This is fricked up. And these people wonder why Trump was elected.

Exactly and probably have scholarships or grants/financial aid along with affirmative action admission, or they are rich or pretty astute middle/upper just making it work out with savings, loan, and so on if actually paying Tulane tuition.

Is there any kind of income check or are they just assuming all blacks are poor and don’t have money?

Tulane hasn’t done the Ivy League thing yet where if your family makes under a certain amount, you attend for free?

I grew up a handful of blocks away from Tulane. Generations of my family went there. I heard stories about what it was like in the 70s all the way back to WWI days. Sounds like it was pretty cool back in the day, especially Greek life, the real Tulane Stadium and how all of that part of uptown was one big tailgate on Saturdays in the fall.

I spent this past Saturday at Tulane. It was surreal. I didn't feel like I was in the South much less Louisiana much less uptown New Orleans. I saw a lot of guys wearing skinny jeans with those haircuts cropped short on the sides but then long gelled up hair on top. I saw a lot of other weird things. Too many to mention.

Precisely.

Correct answer.

Stealing wypeepo’s money and giving it to someone else doesn’t benefit the white people.

They haven’t established the predicate that a student is “marginalized” just because of their racial make up. But the virtue signaling warms their own hearts. All this does is just perpetuate racism. Silly racist liberals

Do you even history?

Governing bodies always pass a “penny tax” and then change it to “$100 tax” over the next few years. This is just a foot in the door tax to grow much bigger.

Step 1 - Smarter students (not just whites) will decide to get their education elsewhere
Step 2 - Their base demographic will shift to a more poverty level student that can't afford the tuition in the end.
Step 3 - Tulane will have to drop their tuition to a level these students can afford or they will have to rollback this equity fee.
Step 4 - ????
Step 5 - Opposite of profit?

"Marginalized students" are students who, for all intents-and-purposes" should not be attending Tulane, and were most likely admitted due to some asinine quota system.
