[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is really the roommate's problem, not your daughter's. She should just carry on being her awesome self. She has no obligation to shield anyone from anything. It's very likely the roommate will have zero issues.[/quote]

I agree to a point.

My kid is AA.  The reality is that there are scummy people out there who would prefer not to room with AA people.  Some of them might be the same scummy people who wouldn't want to room with the OP's daughter.  The reality is that my kid puts up with discrimination outside of his home enough.  He doesn't need to live with it too.  So, if someone didn't want to room with him because of race, then I'd want that person moved.  A kid's room at college is their home, and they deserve to feel 100% comfortable there.

OP, my understanding is that many college students connect with other members of their incoming classes on Facebook, and find a roommate that way.  If that's an option at her school, then maybe she can choose her own roommate.  [/quote]
