[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a parent of 3 wonderful, talented, bright Asian kids, I’m so tired of being told I should just cope because attacking AA will hurt other different minorities. I don’t want to do that, but you aren’t offering me any solutions to address my kids’ harm. Tell me what you want to do instead for my kids to have a fair shot given their stats and I’m all ears.

Your kids get even more screwed by legacy and athletic admissions.[/quote]

How odd that you assume my kids aren’t athletes. [/quote]

well, then you're screwing other kids and are being shameless about "my kids' harm". Congratulations.[/quote]

I have no idea if my kids will play at a collegiate level right now. Maybe, maybe not. But either way I don’t have a problem with an athlete admissions track. [b]It’s actually a great way to give access to diverse candidates[/b]. And in my experience student athletes were hardworking students who used their education well.  [/quote]

elite college athletics is dominated by whites, as you well know, you sock puppet.

Its also a great way to limit Asians students as not many middle class Asian parents can spend enough money or effort on athletics. In many ways, immigrant Asian parents just don't know or understand the admission game.[/quote]
