[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wikipedia: Stuyvesant has educated four Nobel laureates.[7] Notable alumni include former United States attorney general Eric Holder, physicists Brian Greene and Lisa Randall, economist Thomas Sowell, mathematician Paul Cohen, chemist Roald Hoffmann, biologist Eric Lander, Oscar-winning actor James Cagney, comedian Billy Eichner, and chess grandmaster Robert Hess.

Not a single Asian from a school 72% Asian. Interesting.[/quote]

I mean, are you dumb and also a racist?

Stuy and the other specialized high schools have always been a haven for the immigrant classes or those left out of the private school world because of other factors, like racism and antisemitism.

The fact that we have an SHSAT protected by state law is because there was a time when people didn't like all the jewish kids in these nice schools. I bet you can just imagine you'd have been part of that complaining crew then, right!

I think Bronx Science and Brooklyn Tech have even more laureates. you'll see more immigrant names which - newsflash - weren't heavily asian in the 1940s and 50s. [/quote]
