SMU Needs To Develop Dallas Hispanic Community

[mr. pony]

Marketing based on skin-color is disgusting.

What - will that get scrubbed too?

[smusic 00]

What about marketing based on interests?

[RGV Pony]

Yes. For instance, bachata and dubstep interest me

It is not marketing based upon skin-color. It is about reaching out to potential fans. There are only so many people in University/Highland Park available.

[smudubs]

there are a lot of SMU graduates who are leaders of the Hispanic community

Adelpha Callejo
Rene Martinez
Rafael Anchia
Tony Garza

Callejo is dead so she's not leading anything at the moment.

Good lord, don't say anything on this thread. Last time I suggested we market the soccer team to hispanics I was called racist.

Couch'em if I recall correctly, I was the one who called you out on your statements, but I did not call you a racist. I don't throw that term around lightly.

[Nacho]

everyone likes a winner.

It's been a while, but if I recall correctly you were advocating "exploiting" the hispanic community. I have no problem with SMU or anyone else trying to strengthen ties in underrepresented communities but the idea of "exploiting" anyone does not sit well with me.

[couch 'em]

Fair enough. Semantics. Any time you market to a demographic you are exploiting that demographic. If you position yourself to capitalize on a specific market situation you are exploiting that situation.

[Nedward]

I wish to get exploited later this evening.
