The University of Minnesota Honors Program is less than 1% Black and lives in separate housing.
Our football coach makes millions and our University President $800K. K-12 education is vastly underfunded. Minnesota needs this amendment.

Inequity in Minnesota K-12 education spills over into the University. Highly paid administrators, almost all White, separate out undergraduates based on arbitrary admission statistics. The Honors Program with its own separate housing is less than 1% Black.

The President of the United States makes about $400,000 a year.
The President of the University of Minnesota makes about $800,000 a year.
Most K-12 teachers make under $50,000.
K-12 schools educate most people who elect the President of the United States.
Go figure.

And of course the football coach makes millions....
Go figure.

The first two jobs come with a taxpayer funded mansion rent free. For housing, the K-12 teachers are on their own.

The two most important things the state legislature and Congress can do to support our work at the University of Minnesota:
1. Increase K-12 funding so a diverse group of students are prepared for college.
2. Devote public funds to cuts in tuition so students can afford college.

Or we can blow all the money on fancy new buildings we don't need, overpaid administrators who don't do their jobs and coaches who aren't even coaching.
