Iowa State University offers scholarships that appear to exclude white applicants

The College Fix reports:
The largest public university in the state of Iowa offers a scholarship that appears to categorically exclude white applicants.

Through its Multicultural Vision Program, Iowa State University awards full tuition to 100 incoming multicultural students each year. But according to the scholarship’s published informational material, white students are not permitted to receive it.

The program’s website stipulates that “eligible students must…identify as: American Indian or Alaskan Native, Black/African American, Asian American, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, Hispanic or Latinx, or Multiracial on the application for undergraduate admission.”
Attention Jeff Sessions it appears Iowa State University hasn't heard of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
