Why don't Asians just go there? Why are they all so intent in strong arming their way into Harvard if they already have their own version? |
Honestly no one cares what you think, because you've shown the value of it. |
Because the PP is an idiot who doesn't understand abbreviated terminology. |
It's "Let me in even though I'm more capable of academic achievement in school than everyone else". These Asians want merit-based admissions, by some definition of merit that isn't skin color or ancestor geography. |
It's harder to get in there. |
Because they are American citizens, perhaps.. |
| This. Most Asians at Harvard are Asian-Americans. |
| ND is the Catholic Harvard, not Georgetown |

To be honest, Asian Americans would need to build their own institutions, meant historically for Asians for it to be an Asian Harvard.
Universities in China/Singapore elsewhere don't count because it's not on American soil. Harvard/CalTech/Berkeley/MIT don't count because those are white institutions that Asians did not build they just ingrained themselves. Whereas Harvard, Yale, Stanford, etc are historically white institutions. Howard, Morehouse, Spelman are historically black institutions One cannot claim Asian Harvards unless they were built by ones community. Then there are historically Hispanic serving institutions across the country. |
Doesn’t matter. All of their families are there. Wouldn’t you find it odd if we Americans just invaded wherever the heck these two top Asian schools are and demanded entry to the tune of 50% of the population. Do you think the Asians in those countries would have a problem with that or would they welcome us with open arms? |
It’s not just me. I was out with a bunch of friends out last night and this issue came up. It’s not my problem though - it sounds like it might be you and your kid’s down the road. |
What part of American citizens didn't you understand?? |
If you and your friends know about the recent news, Harvard recently got caught discriminating Asians in the US Supreme Court. Thus, more Asians are expected assuming Harvard is more cautious. There's no change that Asians get in by merit. |
Things don't need to be built from ground up. Remodeling is a great option. Top schools like CalTech and UCBerkeley have been remodeled nicely. Harvard is under process. |
Do… do you think that all Asian Americans are from Chinese families? |
