Complaint: 'These scholarship programs, among other things, set up unequal standards of eligibility so that students similarly situated are treated differently based on race and ethnicity, in clear violation of Title VI.'
Complaint: “These scholarship programs, among other things, set up unequal standards of eligibility so that students similarly situated are treated differently based on race and ethnicity, in clear violation of Title VI.”) of the Legal Insurrection Foundation has challenged numerous racially discriminatory programs done in the name of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
“The full-tuition Fordham Scholarship is awarded to entering traditional first-year students for a maximum of eight fall and spring semesters .
As with the Fordham Diversity Fund, different standards are applied depending on the race and ethnicity of the student. An Asian or white student who is not rural/small town or first-generation is not eligible, while a similarly situated African American or Hispanic student is eligible. In violation of Title VI, the above-listed program illegally discriminates against non-Black or non-Hispanic persons based on their race or national origin.
Meanwhile, the Latino Social Work Coalition Scholarship Program, offered through the Fordham Graduate School of Social Work, is restricted to “applicants who are Latino/x/e and bilingual students with significant economic needs” who are pursuing a master’s degree in social work. Students are eligible for scholarships ranging from $500 to $1,500.
