Wow. Anything to file a suit against the NCAA I guess. Give me a break. This was done by the University of North Carolina.

This is an interesting lawsuit in several dimensions. We have African-American athletes, who took advantage of the courses and presumably graduated, attacking as essentially fraudulent a "broad range of African and Afro-American Studies and/or Swahili classes between 1989 and 2011. The list of those classes runs for 12 pages of the 100-page complaint." |
