| Description | Boston University's Republican students group has started a scholarship for white students, to spark debate about race-based programs.
"We are trying to convey the absurdity of any race-based scholarship," said Joseph Mroszczyk, a senior from Danvers who is president of the university's College Republicans. "I don't think race should be part of any scholarship. It should be based on merit or economic need."
The $250 scholarship, which will be funded by the chapter and will do little to meet the university's base tuition of $33,330, has ignited a debate on campus about whether it is the right way to address views on race-based scholarships and affirmative action. |
