That's one way to keep the people in the crowd from yelling after their name is called.

Fake news.


I'm looking at the departments and the listed graduations in the OP and not seeing any carry over.

Just a bad move by Columbia, to not stamp this kind of shite out on an official .edu of theirs


This, even if it's not officially tied to the university it's on their .edu website.

Imagine LSU advertising white only graduation parties/events on their official channels.

They wouldn't. And not only would they not, they'd target the student organizers and get them expelled for breaking student behavioral codes.

This story isn't clickbait, its actual institutional racism in 2021.

I wonder if these people ever learned about segregation in grade school?

Balkanization of a nation and the "wokesters" are the reason. THis is the goal. We will fall if this continues because that is the ultimate goal of this crowd.


If they want Balkanization, I say let’s pull up a chair to the table and talk ‘bidness.’

What year are we in? I thought segregation was discouraged.

It is always entertaining to watch the posters who comment without even reading the source material.

I would hire a McNeese grad with a 2.0 before I hired anybody from an Ivy League school.

What sort of business do you run? I would be just fine with that McNeese grad serving my meal, but less so if he were doing my taxes.

Ok buddy....

So it should be fine to not put the white peoples time for graduation along side every other catagory?

You (sometimes) comment in a way that makes sense but this is just crazy. If they had put whites on the screenshot but left off blacks or hispanics people would be fine with the criticism.

Graduation should be for everyone in a field\department. There should be no separate ceremonies. All these students have accomplished something worthy of celebration by everyone. How could anyone feel that separating people by race etc. is a good thing?

The best way to heal race relations in this country would be to treat everyone the same.

Maybe we should rename colleges "Diversities" instead of "Universities". Since the concept was that they sought truth, which is exclusive and singular, and brought diverse people together in that search.

Separate but Equal?

Considered unconstitutional if applied in the opposite manner.

So basically Whites have to wear yellowface, brownface, blackface or transface to attend a virtual graduation ceremony? Won’t that be considered racist?

People used to go to college to better themselves and get rid of the labels.
