[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. Pretty illuminating thread. With some of these responses, why would a student of color consider the diversity makeup of a school when choosing where to apply? [/quote] why is it "illuminating"- a student of color is looking for diversity b/c it supports them, or like the one kid who wants a smaller city etc b/c she wants certain amenities. having a religious/cultural/racial diversity provides amenities that certain people want or need. just being around people of other races is a weird "amenity" and is objectifying racial minorities. As the racial majority- white people shouldn't care unless their kid would die b/c there is no Thai food in their college town or something... and that is an amenity only tangentially tied to diversity. [/quote] PP here. Thanks for saying the quiet part loud. [/quote]
