Campus Reform reports: "Kent State a cappella group bans white students from solo auditions."
An a cappella group at Kent State University in Ohio allegedly banned white students from auditioning for certain solos and disciplined a longtime member for questioning the race-based policy.
Emails obtained by Campus Reform display how Vocal Intensity A Cappella limited certain solos to “people of color,” claiming white students would be engaging in “cultural appropriation” if they were to perform them.

The board later reaffirmed its position, confirming that the solos would remain restricted to black students unless overturned by a vote.
Well, sounds like a lawsuit if they take school funding.
