University in New York Offers "Stop White People Training"

Have you ever wondered how to respond to “uneducated people” with "good" arguments?  Well at one university in New York, your tuition and fees now cover a session directed to "help others take the next step in understanding diversity, privilege, and the society we function within.”

The State University of New York (SUNY) at Binghamton is now offering a course called “#StopWhitePeople2K16” as part of routine training for residential assistants.  Often called RA's, these students help with dorms and security as paid part-time employees.  

The state-funded school claims to be New York’s highest-ranking public college.
