[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why must we keep stats on race? Why can’t we all just be “American” or the “Human” race. Is it really necessary? [/quote] Because FCPS discriminates against Asians. [/quote] No they don't. Your toxicity is unhelpful.[/quote] It is a fact that the acceptance rate for AAP, with respect to Hispanics and Blacks, is higher than Whites and Asians. It's unclear exactly why the acceptance rate is so much higher, but I think most people suspect that there is a diversity component to AAP. I don't know if I would characterize a diversity component as discrimination against Asians, but I can understand why people have this type of reaction. There is absolutely no transparency or accountability, as no one knows how decisions are made, and this leads to people accusing FCPS of discrimination. I think FCPS would really benefit from being transparent.[/quote]
