This week I read an Empower article on women who is suing UT
(University Of Texas) because she applied there and they didn’t except her.
When she got denied minority students were accepted. She felt as though they
denied her of race and her being Caucasian she felt as though she should have
been chose because of her race and because of her grades. Some colleges have a
program called the Affirmative Action Program, which allows minority students
the chance to attend college. They also base their spaces on students who
grades put them in the top 10 percent of their high school. The women’s grades
didn’t qualify. She is now suing them and they took it to the Supreme Court.
I think that the lady who is suing Ut is crazy, because her
grades didn’t put her in the position for the school and she is suing then
because she thinks that since she is Caucasian she should have been accepted
first. She thinks that minority students should be allowed an education over
Caucasians. I think she is completely out of her mind. And I am not saying this
because I am a minority student but everyone disserves a chance. That’s why President John F.
Kennedy created this law in the first place. People should not be turned down
because of color of their skin or the sound of their voice. Everyone should be
treated the same. People say life isn’t fair but if life isn’t far shouldn’t
education be. People talk about others not having a job but most managers only
except people of their race. I think this is a case of racism and it needs to
be fixed.
