So, my college just decided to give free Ipad 2's to Hispanic and Black students enrolled there. We are a small school, but with a sizable proportion of those two groups. No Native American students here, unfortunately.
How the fuck can the school do that?

If this is true, you should contact a reporter from Fox to cover it.
Is your school public? If it isn't then I don't see a (legal) problem.
I don't think a non profit, educational institution can legally do that. What school is it?
Kind of insulting. In other words, if Black or Hispanic, you couldn't possibly buy your own ipad.
Will KFC/Taco Bell let them come in every morning to charge it?
Way I see it: Can't get good grades without the help of an iPad.
Of course, the grades will still be lower even with the help of the iPad. Nothing to see here.
This has to be a joke. No way your school is actually doing this
Yes, it has to be a joke. This would've hit the online news if it weren't.
If your school is good this will only cost them about $800
Underrated post.
At least someone noticed my hard work...
what country is yoru school in? if this is a trolling attempt, i must admit, it's pretty funny.
ops girlfriend (or boyfriend) probable cheated on him with a black and/or hispanic guy, so he comes up with this fabricated occurence so WSO can attack minorities, so op can feel better about the situation.
There is no way this can be true
This is prime for racist jokes
What school? As a black man I need to enroll ASAP.
Just get some black spray paint bro.
The troll must work for KKR, boom

Not my school, but a sample. I go to a private school.
Not that different than minority scholarships
your title implies that your school handed out ipads indiscriminately to all black and hispanic students. in reality, this program is intended for "at-risk" graduates who are a part of some special program and LENDS them an ipad (hence the title, "iPad Lending Program").
now all the brilliant minds of WSO will chime in with racist comments and cry about the bigotry they face as a white/asian/indian. how lovely.
God, shut the fuck up.
u mad bra?
So, how exactly does having an Ipad help "at-risk" students? What does "at-risk" mean anyway? How does race or ethnicity factor into this?
The only thing I hate more than affirmative action is a Asian/South-Asian/Desi person who supports AA.
funny, i didn't mention my opinion on AA. just pointing out the original post is misleading and factually incorrect.
u jelly?
