Good. Meritocracy is the way to go.

This follows what we are seeing on tours. We toured a dozen top20 schools this summer and the tour groups were 75-95% Asian and South Asian.

My kid (mixed race Asian) was completely turned off and we're left wondering what to do. She wants diversity in college.

Let's be honest, your kid is not desiring "diversity" since Howard is considered "diverse" university. Your kid sounds anti-Asian.

Not surprising since many in our society are brainwashed to become anti-Asian w/o even them becoming aware. Wake up people.

The white kid with the Chilean grandfather no longer feels the need to check the box

Ding, ding, ding.

There are your missing Hispanics. If you go to private school in DC you know about one hundred of these kids. The grandmother was from Argentina but kid's name is Mary Jones and they live in a $4 million dollar home.
These kids are no longer getting the Hispanic bump or at least not with as much ease.

That matters for some schools, MIT is not one of them

MIT is not a chater like Harvard

I don't know why you're bringing up an HBCU. What my kid wants is a university that is multi cultural. black/white/Hispanic/Asian/mixed race. If you can't understand this I don't know what to say. If this makes her racist then so be it.

I have two white/Asian kids. One's friend group is super diverse; the other is mostly Asian.

Lots of Asian Americans still have a certain subculture, good or bad. Not everyone wants that same culture.

People acquire "social credit" for advocating for blacks but you get nothing and might even come across as "uncool' if you advocate for Asian-American in any way. This is opposite of "woke".

Like I said, Asians are to be condemned for studying hard and working hard but blacks are to be worshiped for being just being "black".

Um, no one is saying that. You are interjecting stuff into this post on your own.

It's going to be interesting seeing how things develop if black students fall by two thirds across the board at elite schools, which now seems possible to likely, and as DEI internships dry up at white shoe firms in banking, consulting, law.

This is obviously a boon for HBCUs.

What does black politics look like under those circumstances? Will we see the end of Obama type respectability politicians, with more radical figures stepping in? A new dawn for Afropessimism? What happens if black people have no stake in elite institutions?

in 10-20 years most of these institutions will be led by Asian Americans

No, they will be led by Indian Americans. Look at the Silicon Valley.
