Stanford prefers to give rich women scholarships over poor men

With the majority of incoming college freshmen being female and two thirds of master’s degrees being earned by females, what do universities decide to do to address this imbalance? Why, give well-off women more funding at the expense of low income men of course!

Obviously the fair thing to do is to charge the minority of students (men) more tuition than the majority of students (women).

By providing access to women-only scholarships, and providing them preference over men who are in greater financial need, they have effectively discriminated against an entire minority of people in poverty who are once again oppressed so that people more financially well off can have it even easier :)

This is disappointingly unsurprising.

When they said "Diverse applicants" you can get the hint...

Women, as a minority of only 65% of college students, really need an additional assistance after struggling through K-12 where the overwhelmingly female staff were massively biased in their favor.

Wait...

First few steps towards 'women are the future' implementation.

Tweet with me to seek justice:

""Not only has [@Stanford ] also been systematically discriminating by gender, international status and more while lying to their faces for the last 10 to ~25 years." Look @EDcivilrights @BetsyDeVosED @GOPHELP @realDonaldTrump #TItleIX #MensRights https://www.scholarships.com/news/stanford-caught-lying-by-grad-student-former-google-intern

And in reply:

"Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 protects people from discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities which receive federal financial assistance." #MensRights https://www.knowyourix.org/legal-action/taking-legal-action-title-ix/

And in reply:

Possible crimes: 18 U.S. Code § 241. Conspiracy against rights 18 U.S. Code § 1030. Fraud and related activity in connection with computers 18 U.S. Code § 1343. Fraud by wire, radio, or television. Look @FBI @TheJusticeDept @CivilRights @AGWilliamBarr

Poor white men are the new American 'negro' of the 50's.

They probably see all male applicants as potential Brock Turners anyways

Sounds about right, same story as when I was in highschool. Half the scholarships were exclusively for women/minorities. The other half of the scholarships were given preferentially to women and minorities too.

So if you were a young white male who wasn't able to qualify for a sports scholarship you had to take out a loan and pay your way in.

That's not what the article says. It says that for the MBA program Stanford gave preferential treatment to women with a background in finance and domestic, (as in U.S. citizen) male applicants over other applicants. I don't have any sources but I do believe there are substantially more male U.S. citizen applicants for a MBA program than women with a background in finance.
