Ja: No affirmative action babies these

STUDENTS INTERESTED in pursing higher levels of education need only to go as far as their local newspapers, to find an array of options. Advertisements promising scholarships and overseas educational opportunities, in any field of their choice, are scattered throughout the media.

Keiser College, University of Florida, and the Florida International University, are just a few of the overseas institutions placing advertisements offering Jamaicans opportunities to study and gain undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.

It's a good story from a country with a merit-based educational system. Try telling one of these students they only got to university because of their race. On second thoughts, don't.
