Probably a good call. Our child is a sophomore at a lac and the students are completely turned off by the upcoming class, because they’re so Asian compared to previous classes.

This is terribly racist.

Everyone is overselling how “racist” one comment on the class demographics are. People here will straight up say that Asians are better because culture, harp about how discriminated Asians are, talk about how ending affirmative action will make American colleges more Asian and then when presented with that reality buckle and scream out racist.

I see a potential rise in black students staying in southern institutions. No reason to go to a 5% black environment when you can just head to Georgia tech.

One thing African Americans have learned in our 400+ years here is that you cannot beg and plead and guilt any people group into wanting to be around you. Yes, we don't want to be banned from living or working or going to school anywhere, but we can't control freedom of assembly and movement. White flight will happen. Looks like black flight will happen as well.

Blacks are not banned from anything. Weird mindset.

If your DC got great stats and is competitive, why not apply and have options?

It’s upsetting that black students will move further away from institutions they qualify for due to lack of community, but as a woman in science, I totally get not wanting to spend your time proving yourself.

Because the goal is to enter elite predominantly white institutions and share in the elitism, to make a joint, equal, intermarrying Asian-White elite class, but that can't happen if the whites flee.

We were at one point. Remember, the U.S. has a history before mass immigration in the late 1960s. This country has a history beyond people coming here for economic opportunity.

Have you spoken to your child about their racism?

It’s an observation. You too would notice if your child’s school increased in black population by 10%+ overnight. I also didn’t say she felt that way, just that’s what students were saying. She doesn’t care, cause she’s a white kid just trying to take her classes


using the world turned off by the influx of asians is racist.

It really isn’t. You’re just sensitive I fear.


DP. Yes, it is racist. Replace the word "asians" in that sentence with the words "black people" or the word "Jewish people". How does that make you feel?


I’ll keep the Asians

Really? Is NBA not elite enough for you?
Who cares if there is white black or Asian flee? You think too much of yourself 😆

You care. Expressing concern that people in this thread are saying some schools are becoming too Asian. You are calling those concerns "racist"

Your little racist loser probably got in because you helped her cheat claiming ADHD etc, like many of your people do.

Why is the nba always brought up? College admissions is far from meritocratic, and if it was, we’d just send each student an IQ packet with their application and call it there.
