James Taranto in the Wall Street Journal's
"Best of the Web"
A hush, followed by some giggles, enveloped the Martin Luther King
High School gym in Riverside, Calif., when it was announced on senior awards
night that Warren was the winner of the scholarship. . . .
The $1,000 scholarship, one of two awarded annually by the seniors
club, is meant for African-American students. Club members didn't know Warren is
white until he rose to receive the award. . . .
After some contemplation, Warren and his parents decided to return
the scholarship. They sent an email the next day informing the MLK senior
citizens club of the decision.
