One can’t demand one’s way to success, acquiring skills or having value in a society. Why should society ever bend to accommodate the the endless whims of the “I’ll never grow up” crowd?. Sorry, these demanding immature snots haven’t got what it takes to be on a college campus. Should they have the guts to get a degree, do they intend to use extortion to get a job? Once getting that job how will they demand that it gets done? Colleges need to take a serious look at their admissions policies since “diversity” is just an excuse to litter the campus with those who’s skin color counted more than their academic track record.
