[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]if my child were mixed asian would it help his or her chances to get into tj by no putting in asian? Are there quotas for TJ?[/quote] Was this an April Fool's question? No quotas at TJ - how else do you think they ended up with a majority of Asian students? But I wouldn't identify your kid as Asian on the application if you could also identify him or her as multiracial. [/quote] There are no quotas at TJ but the subject comes up a lot. Our kid is mixed and we also list him as multi/mixed/ or other when that is a choice. They really feel a need to segregate people into boxes but can't admit they do... It drives the bureaucrats crazy, it's fun to watch them squirm..... Kids these days, in this area, are post racial. They wonder what we old folks are talking about. Seriously....ask them. If he was elected by the club, it is fine for me.[/quote]
