    For the fifth time on this network, The UNCF DOES NOT PROHIBIT WHITES FROM
OBTAINING THEIR SCHOLARSHIPS.  They give money to the predominately Black
universities in this land for their scholarship funds.  There are whites that
attend these colleges, and some are on scholarship, therefore, they are receiv-
ing UNCF funds.  I have told you this five times on this network and you still
insist that whites cannot receive scholarship money from the uncf.  The uncf
does not give scholarships directly but leave it up to the member institutions
to give out the money.  Terry you are so full of it.  I have asked you four
times and I will ask you again, where do you get your information on the uncf?
Do you make it up in your head?  I got my information directly from the uncf
(after you made the claim the first time I wrote to them) and from the
financial aid director at Howard University and the one at Penn State univer-
sity (if what you said was true, there would be Black students at Penn State
and other universities on uncf scholarships.  The officer confirmed what the
uncf and howard university said).  What proof do you have for your allegations?

   Name me Black only scholarships. There are examples of minority only scholar
ships given on a university level, but name me black only scholarships?  If
they exist, it is news to me and I wish I had known about them when I was going
through school.  There are no white only scholarships?  Wrong!  The local
Knights of Columbus in my area gives scholarships as well as the local
Jewish temple, seeing that there are no Black members in these institutions, it
can be conceived of as a white only scholarship program!  But I am not as
ignorant as yourself to make that claim.  It is an organization that doesn't
restrict Blacks from joining, we just chose not to and are not eligible for
the scholarships.
