Columbia University still has a 'whites only' scholarship POSTED: Wednesday, May 15, 2013, 9:11 AM Mike Bertha (Diane Bondareff/AP)
Columbia University's Lydia C. Roberts Graduate Fellowship comes with a lot of stipulations. For one, it can only be awarded to a student from Iowa. That student cannot be studying law AND must return to Iowa for two years after graduation. Oh, and that student totally has to be white because, racism.
Roberts was heir to her late husbandâs medical-patent company. She left Columbia the bulk of her $509,000 estate when she died in 1920.
But the gift came with a heap of restrictions, some of them bizarre. In addition to the âwhites onlyâ rule, Roberts fellows must be from Iowa, must not study law or several other fields, and must return to Iowa for two years after graduating.
None of the rules governing the fund â which is now worth $800,000 â can be changed without a court order.
The fund's trustees filed papers in Manhattan Supreme Court on Monday to suggest that the stipulations violate the Constitution. They hope that they'll be able to have the restrictions lifted so that the grants can be awarded more fairly. It hasn't been given out since 1997, it's unclear whether or not Columbia has followed this rule, and this isn't the first time someone's spoken up about the grant.
However, the schoolâs provost at the time, Grayson L. Kirk, defended the racial provision when the NAACP protested it in 1949.
âWe do not feel we are justified in depriving some of our students of the benefits of restricted grants simply because they are not available to everyone,â he said. [NY Post]

Date: May 17th, 2013 8:33 PM Author: Gaped diverse codepig Columbia students were quick to denounce the Roberts fellowship, and several hundred gathered in protest on the steps of the university's library.
"I don't believe this kind of racism has any place on our campus," said Sakhrim Ravishankarbalahar, an engineering student from New Delhi, India. "Columbia is a diverse place, and we don't want these so-called whites ruining our college experience," he added.
The protesters set fire to an American flag, threw apple pies in the dirt, and attacked an effigy of a caucasian housewife.
