[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sara Harberson just posted an article that suggests referencing race or culture might cause parts of your application to be “thrown out.” She’s drawing this conclusion because Harvard told their interviewers not to make note of a student’s race, ethnicity or national origin. [/quote] Really? If a kid is a member of the Chinese cultural club (and lusted as an EC), the application will be thrown out?[/quote] If you read the post you quoted, she decided your app would be thrown out simply because Harvard told interviewers not to write down the kid's race/ethnicity/nationality in their notes. That's a huge leap she's making. Harvard is like me telling my elderly mother that the race of her nurse doesn't need to be referenced when she's telling me about her doctor's appointment.[/quote]
