[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With the latest Supreme Court ruling, it looks like there will no longer be an advantage for white kids who lie and claim Hispanic or black.[/quote] Hispanic/Latino is the ethnicity question, which is a separate question from race. Many, perhaps even most, Hispanic students in the US check the white box when asked for race. There is no Mestizo option. (The "American Indian or Alaska Native" box pulls up questions asking for federal tribe identification info.) This is entirely the result of federal reporting requirements.[/quote]
