[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The program is very diverse.[/quote]

really? my white kid is a minority. Overwhelmingly Asian.  Not a shot at them; just a fact. [/quote]

but is he a German, Italian, Irish, British, Australian, Polish, Czech, Serbian, Greek, Slovakian, Scottish, Russian etc. native or any of those ethnicities and American?

Similarly Asians can be [b]Chinese, Korean, Thai, Japanese, Indian, Malaysian, Singaporean, Vietnamese, Laotian, Indian, Sri Lankan, Cambodian, Indonesian, Burmese [/b]etc. or any of those backgrounds and American.  To lump all Asians together is silly.

There's plenty of diversity in these schools. [/quote]

[b]those are nationalities, not races. [/b]
And don't be naive. The Asians that dominate AAP are from ony a small handful of those nationalities. [/quote]

fair enough.   but there are vast differences even within that small handful, despite some shared cultural beliefs as any Asian will tell you.  to think otherwise isn't naïve, it's ignorant.[/quote]
