re: Is it racist for a university to set aside scholarship money for one race only?

In other words, remove names and race off applications. You are given a number identifier. Only your stats will be considered. Likewise, recommendations are tied to your number.
I agree with doing this. Makes too much sense though and the whiners would cry even more. Some don't seem to want to go off of who is the most qualified...

How many private universities out there are not accepting any federal money?
I believe the answer may be 1.
If you remove all federal money whatsoever, yes, do what you like. Otherwise, do not discriminate to the detriment of anyone.

I'm a Libertarian so my question would be is this a gov't funded university or a private one? If former, then it's not acceptable. If the latter, then it's none of my business.
See, that was easy.

I'm cool with this. Are you. Would you agree to capping all black enrolment at 13% and make all historically black colleges accept at least 50% whites?

Would that make you happy?
Extremely. I guarantee you that you'd be here posting articles about how it's racist and how HBCU are Necessary

I know you are being facetious, but yes I would be. READ the rest of this very carefully.
Think about how many colleges the US currently has. And think about the marketability of 50% of the majors offered. It would actually encourage more people in the vocational schools. More people in vocations would actually stimulate the economy more than a surplus of (insert race or gender) studies.
Basically at 13-15% cap would probably help more black students in the long run because it would force them to consider the most practical way to use their education. And it's not like private sectors are going to stop having an agenda. Private interests will provide scholarships and other programs, thus relieving the tax paper.

Actually, my plan would probably create an HBCU Renaissance. They will get the students who didnt go to state university or vocational school.
Turn lemons into lemonade.

Any money set aside for the asians?

It is racist.
Everyone should be treated equally.
