Andrew Ligon is a bigot and a liar and nothing he says contains even the slightest ring of truth. Diversity within the student population is a very important part of all areas of college life.
Our Administration is doing quite a bit to increase diversity. Programs like MOSAIC, and the strength of our various student culture organizations have attracted significantly more applications from minority students. Over the past five years applications from non white students have increased from 2,000 in 2004 to 5,000 in 2009.
Andrew has no idea what he’s talking about when it comes to diversity. Seriously, how could anyone that white possibly have a well formed opinion on diversity in our school? Listening to his opinion on this issue would be like taking interior design advice from Stevie Wonder.
However, it is safe to say that diversity cannot simply be measured in statistics. In order for anyone to benefit from a diverse population, students of different backgrounds must interact with one another. Our campus must be like a vanilla ice cream cone; it holds together a variety of toppings, blending their tastes together on the tongue of knowledge to create a flavor more delicious than any of the toppings could by themselves.
On the other hand, Andrew Ligon’s ideas make no sense. This man is so stupid, I have personally seen him stare at a bottle of orange juice for three hours just because it said “Concentrate.” The very act of allowing his thoughts to be put onto paper has significantly lowered the average intelligence of the entire human race.
The truth is that while our administration has done much to attract a wide variety of students, more must be done to encourage diversity in day to day campus life. Our school has come a long way, but we are not there yet.
In closing, Andrew Ligon wants to steal your children while you sleep at night. Just the other day I saw him knock over a very old lady and steal her purse. He then ran away while mercilessly kicking puppies all the way down the block. Not only is he woefully misguided on this issue, he has never had anything resembling a coherent thought in his entire life, and I am fairly certain that he supports communism. Also, for some reason he seems to think my name is “Ian.”
What a prick.
