UC Riverside Black Graduation

I first heard of this maybe a week ago, but haven't had time to post.

University of California, Riverside once again had a seperate graduation ceremony for African American students.  The latest one was June 10, 2012.  According to the article, they have done this for several years.

I'm not sure that I'm really allowed to comment, but a seperate graduation ceremony seems like a step backwards for equality to me.

Romney Stuff? Trouble?

I saw a Romney bumper sticker on the way in to work today. I am pretty sure I have not seen any stickers or lawn signs up until that. Obama and Paul stuff, yes, but not Romney. I think we may be in trouble.
