Hank Berrien

The Student Government Association of Western Kentucky University has announced it voted for paying reparations to black students because of slavery that existed more than one hundred years before they were born.

The student association, which passed the resolution19-10-1, said the university should acknowledge slavery is “a debt that will never be paid,” adding that a special task force should be created by WKU to research test-optional admissions and geographically-weighted admissions. That wasn’t all; the student association asserted that all black people should be given free tuition.
