<p>Well thanks for the help...</p>

<p>So what does my OP (haha revenge) mean???</p>

<p>PC it is :)</p>

<p>"Damnit guys what does PC mean. Speak english for gods sake!!!! No nerdy mumbo jumbo computer talk!"</p>

<p>WOW again</p>

<p>politically correct-expression that is used often</p>

<p>"Reception for minority perspective"</p>

<p>But seriously people, don't you think that is just a little bit over the top?</p>

<p>i guess, cause they are singling them out</p>

<p>"they are singling them out" and this does what?? Why would Brown do this and what does it mean?</p>

<p>Wow this thread is toooooo much.</p>

<p>natalie_portman, for future reference, the word you were looking for is "prospective," not perspective. That is, if you are referring to prospective students. I think that's what Ernie was getting at. And "singling out" means selecting certain people from a group (in this case, based on ethnicity).</p>

<p>I hope that helps. And good luck with the whole Brown thing.</p>
