I was threatened with in-school suspension for screwing around with the my 11th grade school's data collection (as opposed to the school I went to from grades 1-10, and 12). They received money for minority achievement. I classify myself as Semitic, or Eastern European/Ukrainian. I'm technically not White: not according to medical classifications. Because of my Semitic heritage, I'm required to check that if I donate blood, bone marrow, platelets, etc. I do consider myself Caucasian, but that is a much broader category, and not just "white".
