Did you take these ethnic discriminations to a review board? Or did you just whine about them to your fellow students?
Yes, I did take this to the department who refused to hear the case directly, and I did file a complaint which I couldn't always follow up and take time off just so I can take care of this. I basically suffered the "you need to take a lot of time out of your life to get this taken care of" which I couldn't. I worked 40 hours a week and took 16 credits (5 of your UK modules out there). I lived on my own and brought myself up from my own damned boot straps. I missed at most 1 class, I averaged 90's, did all my HW and participated in class. And I got a C+ from a professor (who hasn't even finished their master's yet) for the programming course while others who didn't do much better or worse than me got B+'s.
That's life. Take responsibility for the entire experience. Don't demean others for your actions.
Excuse you, but I have taken responsibility for my actions. I lived out the stupid .com boom, going to college and living on my own with very little help thank you very much. I did have the objective facts. I went out of my way to do the best so I could stay out of achedemic probation. I've been yelled at, beat up and repressed for things I didn't even do! Just because I'm half black, or get mistaken for middle eastern (9/11), or am to white of a black person.

You don't know me and what I had to go through to get where I am. So you can keep your judgements of me and take that chip of your shoulder before you make your judgements on me. Your idealistic little world does NOT exist.

-not sorry this is a flame,
your friendly monk.
