Carleton University (the Canada Carleton) student group votes to end Shinerama campaign
UPDATED: See previous diary by bugscuffle.
UPDATEX2: Edited to point out it was Carleton University of Canada, not Carleton College of Minnesota.
"A student association at Carleton University has decided to cancel its annual Shinerama campaign benefiting cystic fibrosis according to the belief the disease only affects white people, who are mostly male."
I am utterly befoggled at this. I mean, really, what is there to say? I kept hoping it was a hoax, or something from the Onion, but no, it's on the level.
To the people who perpetrated this: please to be joining the conservatives, because I'd so much rather you made them look bad.
Any other Kossacks feel like donating to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation?
