blog 35 Diversity or Discrimination?

The paper I read this time was called, “Diversity or Discrimination?”.  This paper was about all the different organizations, groups and services for minorities in colleges but how there are none for majority groups like Caucasians.  The author saw this as discrimination against the white population.  He brings up the Ohio State University and how they have an Office of Minority Affairs.  At this office, their goal is to help the minority groups succeed.  They give them lots of aid and help to make sure they graduate on time.  However there is no Office for Majority Affairs.  If schools are trying to be diverse by having all these programs and help for minorities, then why aren't there any for majority students.  Don’t the majority deserve the same opportunities and help that the minority students get?  I think the author brings up a lot of good points.  It does seem like minority students get a lot more than the Caucasian majority students do.  There are numerous ethnic groups on campus but according to the author, there aren’t any for Caucasians.  Don’t Caucasians deserve their own group as much as the other ethnic groups?  I agree with the author’s point that at colleges, there is less equality among the races.  I think this is timely article because you hear about equality and diversity all the time.  It’s all over the news and it’s an important subject.
