    I just heard a guy complain about student aid disparities tonight. In the US, I wish they would limit that to black folks and natives. Asian kids and Indian folks getting scholarships without performance over white guys who do well is ridiculous, but blacks and native are owed a bit of leverage as reparations and to level the playing field. I know that’s unpopular, but there, I said it.

    I’m in engineering, and it’s hard to succeed as a woman in some places. It seems culture specific since I transferred to a different state and experienced a much different situation.
