College Protest against Proposed Califorinia Bill to Allow Colleges to consider ethnicity/gender in Admissions - September 26th 2011, 12:44 AM
Here's an article about the protest:

And here's one about the bill "AB2047". I don't know if it's the same one, or if it's been renamed, but the proposal is exactly the same:

Thoughts on both fronts?

I personally think the bill shouldn't include race, gender, and national origin. Discrimination works both ways.

Often I lie wide awake, thinking of things I could make.
But I don’t seem to have the parts to build them.
I am so scared of what will kill me in the end, for I am not prepared.
I hope I will get the chance to be someone, to be human.
