TOMBALL, Texas – Students at Lone Star College-Tomball are taking issue with the controversial concept of “White Privilege” taught as part of a Student Success Course.

A student who did not want to be identified for fear of retribution by his professor told Click2Houston.com he received a worksheet, checklist, and a quiz about “White Privilege” as an assignment for the online course, but doesn’t plan to complete it.

“I was shocked, I thought it was a joke,” the student said. “There was a white privileges handout, a white privileges check list, a white privileges quiz to see how privileged you are as a white person.”

“Basically, the way I felt was that I was supposed to feel alienated and I was supposed to feel bad,” he said.

The white privilege worksheet asks students to check the statements that apply to them. The statements include: “If a traffic cop pulls me over or if the IRS audits my tax return, I can be sure I haven’t been singled out because of my race,” “I can arrange to be in the company of people of my race most of the time,” and “I can go shopping alone most of the time, pretty well assured that I will not be followed or harassed.”

The student told the television station he was offended by the assignment, refused to complete it, and filed a complaint with the college.

It doesn’t appear, however, that the college is taking action to change or remove the assignment.

“Diversity is an important topic covered in the Lone Star College Student Success Course. In addition to its importance, it can also be a very difficult topic to teach, facilitate, and even discuss with students,” the college said in a prepared statement.

“The structure of the Student Success Course allows individual faculty members to create their own lesson that helps illustrate the various elements of diversity. Some of the topics addressed can include race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, age, physical abilities, and religious beliefs, just to name a few.

“The purpose of this lesson is encourage students not only explore rich dimensions of diversity that are contained within each person, but to also take time to reflect on the aspects of diversity that make up who they are as individuals. The assignment you inquired about was a supplement exercise with no point value assigned to it.”

Regardless, plenty of other students believe it’s wrong, as well.

“I don’t think people should be judged based on their color or anything,” Giovanni Hernandez told Click2Houston.com. “I would probably be offended.”

“If it’s an assignment, I would be like ‘I’ll take a zero’ because it’s racist,” Brady Adams said.

The professor who handed out the white privilege assignment would not return calls from Click2Houston.

The white privilege assignment is one of many received by students across the country on an annual basis.

At this year’s national White Privilege Conference, for example, educators from across the country heard from progressive educators like Kim Radersma, an English teacher who hosted a session called, “Stories from the front likes of education: Confessions of a white, high school English teacher.”

From the Daily Caller:

Radersma advised participants — who paid more than $400 for the privilege of hearing her rant about privilege — that teaching was a purely political act, and neutral people should “get the fuck out of education.”

“Teaching is a political act, and you can’t choose to be neutral,” said Radersma. “You are either a pawn used to perpetuate a system of oppression or you are fighting against it. And if you think you are neutral, you are a pawn.”

All teachers who do not actively confront the system are promoting white supremacy, said Radersma.

The conference, of course, is funded with taxpayer dollars, according to the MacIver Institute.
