[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You might have been at the same graduation. I also noticed that about the AAPI graduates and no effort being made to pronounce the names correctly and the lack of recognition of National Merit Semifinalists/Finalists and Presidential Scholar Finalists and even musical achievements. It seemed purposely planned not to have recognition of AAPI graduates which was upsetting.[/quote] Another sad part is that because the schools are so against recognizing Asian American students' academic achievement, non Asian kids who are also very high achievers don't get the recognition either. There were some non Asian kids who got straight As all four years, but because the school didn't want to recognize the much higher achievement of straight As all 4 years, that meant those non Asian kids were also cheated out of that recognition. All because they don't want to recognize so many Asian students as being high achieving. yes, there is systemic bias against Asian American students.[/quote]
