Re: HPU's Subliminal Racist Marketing Campaign
I happen to have an HPU pamphlet here; it's from the center for graduate studies, specifically about the new M.Ed. program (in which I enrolled today). I thought it might be useful to take a look at it. I don't think it will confirm or disprove KahalaBrah's original post, since I think he's mostly talking about print advertisements, and this is something quite a bit different, but at the same time, it is at least something concrete and present.
Cover: Two photographs. One shows an Asian male and a very, very attractive Asian female. I hope she's in one of my classes. The other shows a woman of unknown ethnic background, but if I had to guess I'd say half Euro, half Hispanic.
Inside Front Cover: Four students -- one male and three female -- three of whom can be seen clearly. All three clearly visible students are Caucasian, 'though one looks like he's of mixed ancestry. One student who can only be seen from the side looks Filipino to me.
Page One: One photograph, two male and two female students. Two Asians, two Caucasians.
Page Four: One photograph of an HPU professor. I'm willing to bet Hispanic or Filipino. Her first name's Valentina. I guess that doesn't prove anything, and she could easily be Caucasian, but she's the director of the program, so I think her picture would be in here regardless of her ethnic ancestry.
Page Five: One photograph of a male, mostly Caucasian-looking professor, also one of the professors in the program.
Page Six: One photograph of a male professsor of what looks like mixed ancestry. Perhaps African, perhaps southern Italian. Can't really tell.
Page Seven: One photograph of three women. One looks mostly Caucasian. The other two look mostly Pacific Islander.
Page Eight: Two photographs. One is of the Dean of the college of Liberal Arts -- I'd guess Filipino. The other is of two men and a woman, all of whom look mostly Caucasian.
Page Nine: One photograph of the inside of the Center for Graduate Studies (I was just there this morning). I see one Asian woman with nice thighs who I think helped me get registered this morning, two Caucasian women, one Pacific Islander woman, and two Caucasian men.
Well. There you go. I don't know what this indicates, if anything. Other than the fact that I need a date, I mean.
