How would naming a school's designation after one particular ethnic group make it more inclusive again? How would that be more inclusive- seems less inclusive to me..

It's 2025.. it's time to move past race and tribalism. I thought this country was a "melting pot?".. When people say they feel uncomfortable "because people don't look like them" isn't that the definition of racism? Wouldn't it be a bit weird if in 2025 they started say a new historically White, or Asian university? There would be an outcry over that..

You say it would "help the state's legacy of diversity and inclusion" (not sure what you're talking about there), but diversity is the opposite of one ethnic group being promoted.. you realize promoting one ethnic group above others is the opposite of diversity, right?

Also, the H in HBCU stands for Historically.. There isn't any history regarding Sac State being a school that was majority black as a result of racial segregation, I just don't get what you're talking about here.

Morgan Freeman famously said: “I don't want a black history month. Black history is American history; there is no white history month. The only way to end racism is to stop talking about it... Stop talking about it. I’m going to stop calling you a white man. And I’m going to ask you to stop calling me a black man."

MLK once famously said: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

Creating racially backed colleges and universities seems like a step backward to me.. and doesn't make any sense at all in the Sacramento State context.

I guess it is hard to read the sarcasm.

@ fugawe09 - Yeah, Cal Poly was good when Davis and Sac were bad a decade or more ago, then Davis and Sac got good and Cal Poly got bad.

I'm as baffled as the next guy, but hoping things turn around at Cal Poly soon. Don't get me started on the Cal Poly uniform colors.

Kind of starting to think Cal Poly going FCS independent might not be that bad. The Big Sky is too tough a conference and the travel is tough already. Also, don't really care to see SUU and Dixie State.. err Utah Tech added either. Neither really adds much.

You wish.

Cal Poly has a long history of football. The school's enrollment continues to increase, and just spent about $45-50 Million on the John Madden Football Center (you have heard of him, right?), as well as upgrades to the north endzone area. Football isn't going anywhere at Cal Poly.

Also, there is a new athletics director, so hoping whoever is selected does a better job than the last guy.
