[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you read the link you posted, the most "non-white" students that were admitted were Asian. The state with the highest number of applicants by far was California. The racial makeup is pretty similar to the population of young people in California. Nothing to see here..[/quote] actually, it was Hispanic, and California admits made up less than 25% of admitted students (less than any other California institution, and that includes Stanford/Caltech). 16.5% of Harvard students come from New England, even though New England only represents 4.7% of the US population. So what does that really mean, even? Most schools, even the ivies, draw students primarily from their home base. Those areas are over-represented relative to the overall population. Does that mean we shouldn't question them? [/quote]
