30-minute game -- choosing your color?

Maybe I missed it, but I don't see a way to choose white (or black) when starting a 30 minute game.   Do you just have to take the color your opponent doesn't want?

In live games you can only choose color in unrated games

So is color assigned randomly in rated live games?

Yes, otherwise it would be unfair
