I guess they probably don't want the religious bigots and white supremacists mixing with everyone else.

Anyone?  They can't trust their mostly Christian students to treat each other with Christlike love is the only thing I can figure.

I thought they were integrated in 2002? By law, a school that has a prom has to allow any student of any race. However there is a difference between law and tradition. And the tradition at many schools is that white students organize a white prom, and black students organize a black prom. As long as it’s not officially sanctioned by the schools, it’s legal. But they don’t have to do anything to discourage it either.

There is nothing wrong with social custom which preserves the genetic integrity of any group. This benefits African-Americans as well as they are a minority which could easily be interbred out of existence if miscegenation is permitted among heterosexuals.
In a thousand years is it really in the interest of the human race that all genetic diversity be eliminated? And if you say "who gives a rat's ass?", remember that would mean cultural diversity would be eliminated as well.

This appears an (unpleasant) version of the slippery slope argument and so is a fallacy.

What do smaller ethnic groups do in these situations. Are they automatically classed as "black" or do they just hire out a small room somewhere?
Oh and what do students already dating outside their ethnic group do?

Sure, that's why they're doing it. And only the schools in the most regressive places in the deep south are smart enough to have figured this out. That's the ticket.

Because they'd string up the prom king if he was black and the queen was white.

Tradition. A lot of people dont understand the south and mistake tradition for racism (Confederate flag is a good example)

Greek parents will have a fit and threaten the non-Greek boyfriend. The non-greek girlfriend, well it is OK if their son stumpfs her as long as they do NOT marry.
BTW, how many diners are in Georgia?
