In USC student government, where are the women?
Since 2006, every candidate for USC student body president has been male, and almost all winners have been fraternity members.

James White hesitated before deciding to run for USC student body president, knowing he'd be a long shot because of his background.

Because he's black?

"No, not that," White said, adding that race isn't the biggest deal in campus presidential elections. "It's other forms of diversity that aren't appreciated."

White was referring to this: Only a few presidents have been racial minorities since 2006, but almost all have been part of a Greek organization, and every single one has been male. There hasn't even been a female presidential candidate during that time.
