Here is a article about a racism case on a african american sorority girl who was discriminated at a sorority rush at UGA. The more I read it, the more I think its totally ridiculous ( in my mind along with some people's mind in the west coast, east coast and some parts of the midwest) and racist, especially based on how that judge ruled. Especially I find it unfair and stupid for having that bigotry. ( think about it, since they will be working in the real world soon if they have not or dont expose them to much diversity, then other then the south how would you expect to survive if you cant handle diversity? I mean I know many companies, even good ones and organizations appreciate and tolerate diversity. My school district and even the most prestiguous ones, esp colleges are not homogenuous but rather they have diversity)
Even though the discrimination history they had was 50 years ago, seems as tho its no wonder they were stuck in the past.
As I have read just because they have a african american doesnt mean that it will turn into some kind of ghetto or open a floodgate of "niggers" which in turn will cause the reputation to decline. For example in my circle of friends, even though I mostly hang out with caucasian friends, I have friends from all over the world whether it be from like Britain, India or such. I even know a african american friend in my circle along with others who we are good friends with and we dont worry at all about whether or not they will open the floodgate and all that kind of bs. In fact, its almost never in our mind whether I am from a friend who is from britain. Rather it should be based on whether or not they are human and being able to get along and character and who they are.
Blacks Need Not to Apply ( excuse me but yeah maybe they should not apply to the east coast or west coast!)

Anyone have any critical thoughts about that article? I know this was posted somewhere yet this also opens up other users thought for those who never seen this post before.
