Orientation for Whites

This is an interesting but debatable issue and calls for student affairs practitioners to air out their views if confronted with a similar development. This perspective about how people can debate mainly motivated me to choose the article.
It’s all about orientation, which is organized for different groups of people in a college. The substantive issue is that Mount Holyoke College, which has for many years had a voluntary program for minority students in advance of the general orientation, now decides to organize a similar orientation for the White students. Different schools of thought feel that it creates segregation and discrimination. The object for the separate organization was to talk extensively about racial issues, but is it correct? Will a time come when male students will also request for a separate orientation? What are your views about this innovation? Please.
