New scholarship available to white males only
WAH WAH WAH. Poor, repressed white man! This scholarship was started by a 28 year old white male, who claims "he got the idea while applying for college. He said scholarship money was not there for him and that he felt excluded."
FREAKING REALLY???
I didn't get a whole lot of scholarships, but I did get enough to pay for my first year at UT, including tuition and books. (And I am also 28, so we would have been applying at about the same time). And guess what? Not a single one was given to me because I'm female. They were all for my writing, my community activism, and my grades; they were not based on race or gender. I'm guessing if this guy couldn't find any scholarships, it's because he either really didn't try to find them and apply (I had a big thick book of scholarship info, available at any bookstore) or because he never bothered with his grades or bothered to get involved in volunteer work. In which case... I really don't know why he's surprised nobody wanted to give him a scholarship. Those generally go to people that show they can put in effort.
Good for him for joining the military! Once he finally put in some effort, the government rewarded him with paid education. I'd be willing to bet he served with a whole lot of minorities that were also there to earn an education because they didn't get scholarships either, despite the fact they aren't white as white can be. What an amazing concept.
