[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great article and we are going to see the same thing happen for TJ admissions in the next few years. Asian American students comprise 20% of FCPS population, but about 70% of TJ students.  That kind of "diversity" isn't acceptable to many, and there is a huge push to change the racial makeup of the school.[/quote]

And stuy and the elite nyc magnets - but for some reason people love it when the nba and nfl show a lack of diversity. [/quote]

This is pretty dumb.  The NFL and NBA are not educational institutions with a public mission.  [b]They are revenue generating enterprises.  Their goal is to make money....period[/b].[/quote]

Yet this logic does not hold for regular private firm hiring (otherwise f500 firms would not have whole departments in hr dedicated to minority outreach, diversity, etc).

I don't think the NBA and NFL has a public outreach arm saying "we need to boost how many white and asian players we have" and dedicate resources to do so.

But you the funny thing, MLB has massive initiatives trying to boost black player enrollment in the game.

How many Black and Latino team owners are there?[/quote]
