There was a comment in the previous thread suggesting that the diversity scholarship was sexist and racist. In a world where racism and sexism were absent, then a scholarship directed towards a particular gender or race would be racist or sexist. I believe the point of the original poster is that to label the scholarship as racist or sexist is to assume that we live in a world with racial/gender/ethnic equality.

Isn't denying someone eligibility on the basis of their skin color and sex racist and sexist? Again no one previously denied or even alluded to racism/sexism not existing.
