University Hosts ‘Retreat’ for Students Who ‘Self-Identify As White’
The University of Vermont hosted a three-day retreat for students who “self-identify as white” — whatever the hell that means — to deal with their terrible, horrible, no-good-very-bad privilege.
The retreat, titled “Examining White Privilege: A Retreat for Undergraduate Students Who Self-Identify as White,” ran from November 13–15.
The point of the event, according to the school’s official website, was to give students “the opportunity” to “conceptualize and articulate whiteness from a personal and systemic lens” (Ooooh! Them’s some smart words!) and “recognize and understand white privilege from an individual experience.”
“We will explore questions like: What does it mean to be white? How does whiteness impact you?” the website states.
The public (read: taxpayer-funded) university covered all costs for the students who attended.
Lest you think that something like this would be a waste of money, the website also included some pretty damn inspiring testimonials from students who had attended this retreat before.
For example: 2015 graduate Cora Churchill gushed that “it provided a safe space to learn about yourself and others and how we experience and understand privilege and systems of oppression.”

I’m thinking of self-identifying as a green alien from distant planet with a superior culture.
