You've missed several references. Here's one, from the beginning of the article. > “College itself is a huge workload, especially for minorities and people of lower socioeconomic status,” Mr. Ross said. Also, if you think that putting "lower income" in the title and having a header photo of a black student isn't making this about race, I don't know what to say. There are also mentions of race and minorities throughout.

I stand corrected: I did miss that one reference. However, it doesn't appear that I missed several references. > Also, if you think that putting "lower income" in the title and having a header photo of a black student isn't making this about race, I don't know what to say. "I don't know what to say" is not an argument but rather a failure to make an argument. > There are also mentions of race and minorities throughout. There are 3, which we've already covered.

  > "I don't know what to say" is not an argument but rather a failure to make an argument. This is also not an argument. The point is that you're trying very hard to miss the point. You're free to keep struggling to do so. I've seen you do the same in many other threads in the past!

    1) You haven't explained how the photo of a white woman makes the article about race. 2) You haven't shown, which you easily could if it were true, that there are more than three mentions of race in the article, the two I quoted and the one you quoted. 3) You apparently want to transform "Lower-Income Students" into "Non-White Students" for some reason, but the article does not support that transformation. Yes, there was a photo of a black man at the top. Do you want to suggest that a black person cannot be photographed without making everything into race? I hope not, because that would itself seem kind of racist.
