Holy crap, this is beyond ridiculous! These so called "counselors" need to be removed from their position.
"According to the job description, they serve as "counselors" to younger students in the dorms."  Does this not include Leadership by Example? Being someone the school is proud to have represent their campus? Do we need to keep letting people stir the pot and start more racial drama? College should be about getting an education and this roommate situation is a joke. We have bigger issues on campus:
Sexual assault (1 in 3 women are sexually assaulted on their college campus). 
Campus shootings and acts of violence.
College is a huge financial commitment - especially when you live on campus! 
College is all about new learning experiences and trying new things. Experimenting & adventures. Roommates are about living with other people. Don't want a roommate? Then live by yourself! But if you are on campus, in campus dorms then advertising for a roommate based on race is not acceptable.
