I agree that sholoarships based on race/color/etc... has gone a little too far, but I don't think that this is the best way to go about showing your opinion on the matter. In Texsa they enacted a new law/rule that the top 10% of every school gets a free ride to any state school (University of Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, etc...) in the hopes that it will give inner-city and other impoverished students a chance to excel at college. While this is great in theory, my fiance's roommate her freshman year was dumber than a stump, but she came from a school of 50 kids, and she was in the top 10% of her class, if not she was the top 10% of her class. Anyway, my fiance had a 3.8 average all through school, but because she was from a large school, she didn't make the free-ride cut.

Where am I going about all of this? I agree that there are instances where giving things based on race/color/etc... is bad, but over-all it is still needed. Big business and the U.S. in general is stil run by white males, and I fear that if all laws were pulled immediately, most would go back to their old ways and we would have to instantiate affirmative action again to give others a fair chance.
