From a website dealing with SWA applicants: They're interviewing 16 people/day with a success rate of 25-40% so they're pretty fussy (Delta's interview success rate, for comparison, is 68%) and the seat progression won't be as rapid as DL, UA or AA since SWA doesn't have the % retirement issues the others have. They have 3 classes/mo set through August with 2/mo after that with maybe more.
Somebody must've been pullin' somebody's leg with the SWA rumor. ;-)
I'm surprised you've had issues due to your lineage. Try to find some more enlightened people to associate with ! :-)))
