The public school are run by boards appointed by the politicians, right? Their cronies are the ones in charge. |

There aren’t enough urms in t20s to shift hundreds of thousand kids to oos flagships The author has it right “Above average” kids got dropped and rightly so Even if urms went to 0, the above average kid getting into vandy or Dartmouth in 1990 isn’t getting in today |
The percentage of white kids is going down dramatically at top schools. The PP forgot to include International schools with the URMs, but it undeniable that whites are getting fewer admissions to top schools: For example, Stanford's enrollment rate for white students in the Class of 2026 was 22%. Whites and Asians make up more than 75% of college ready students in the U.S. and whites are the vast majority of those. |
*International students |
Non Jewish white kids are NOT t20 material anymore unless they can play a sport or bring lots of money in via parents You do realize goyim whites get geographic affirmative action at t20s already If anything, if you wanted pure academics to matter then Asians and Jews and internationals will take all the spots |
Correct. People forget the “U” in URM stands for “under-represented”. |
|
interesting, but I dont agree that places like WI and MI and Il and UVA and UVM are giving much merit money to OOS.
Bama and SC and Ole Miss, yes. But I see the need to buy these kids |
Again, there are not enough seats at top schools to enroll the high achieving kids, no matter what race. As you stated there are more white kids in that 75% because there are more white kids in the pool. Even decreasing the percentage of URM kids to 5- 10% of kids at top schools will not change what is happening at public universities. |
Yes, math is hard but take a minute to do it and you will see the shift. Is it huge when you look at the top 20, no because there are so few seats, but it i present. Using the USNNWR top 20 and ties from last year there are about 50K freshman seats. That will change slightly as different size schools move in and out of the top 20 but from those schools CDS data there were 14,687 URMs and 12,096 Asians enrolled. So URMs make up about 29.5% of the freshman population and Asians about 24% of the freshman population, leaving 46.5% for whites and unidentified. So, yes white kids are being shifted to state flagships, hundreds of thousands no, but thousands. So, some exceptional kids are losing seats as well as many above average kids. But in the end it only matters if it is your kid. |
Somehow our country managed OK back when "goyim whites" were the majority at these schools. Wow, PP. |
Why are you adding urms and Asians in one bucket when they are kept separate by admissions? The pp talked about urm effect Asians outcompeting above average white kids rightly is pushing non-impressive white kids to oos publics |
| If you believe in diversity, there is some value in kids getting educated with kids from different regions. So the mixing and matching makes sense. |
Not putting into the same bucket. 29.5% URM (Hispanic, Black, Native American, Alaska native). 24% are Asian, the over represented minority. So 53.5% of student population are minorities. Since minorities represent about 1/3 of the population they are over represented by about 20%. While whites who represent about 2/3 of the US population are underrepresented by about 20%. Make of it what you will, those are the statistics. So more white kids are going out of state, to other state flagships. |
These are not all the same. |
