The problem is that it’s a zero sum game - if you’ve benefited from it, then someone else was discriminated against on the basis of their race for your benefit.

That's simply not true, it is largely on colleges to improve staffing and facilities to accommodate more students. It is well-known that populations generally increase so especially public schools should probably try to understand and address that. Due diligence is something we should ask of our publicly funded services.
It's not the role of students to delay or defer their own education out of some sense of guilt.

Someone else, who historically was a white person that benefited from their race in every other aspect of society
