It's funny....these bowl games??? Lotsa black players, and not so many black fans
In the stands. Looks like all white, and I bet alumni. Or is it just me??

3. You could say the same thing about many of the current student body
compared to the football team.
We as a society need to be better at both getting minority students into college, but also graduating. My undergrad (University of Colorado) is about 2% black undergrads. Grad school (Boston College) has about 4%. |

4. It's the same thing at regular season games and the same at the professional level
in all sports (hockey and golf excluded since there are very few minorities playing those sports).
