[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Harvard counts values of Applicants into mix. How is that AA?

True example my elderly neighbor across street on Tuesday fell and ambulence and police showed up. My wife and kids went over help and my neighbor also. We offered to check mail, get groceries help out while wife in hospital. Husband is an elderly Vet whose kids live out of state.

The two Chinese family with kids radio silence. Violin, Piano, Clubs at school, volunteer activity that will look good on college application interest them. No credit they don't get involved.

So Harvard looks a bit deeper at application to find empathic kind people who are good citizens but those metrics are letting in better people but folks who may have slightly lower GPAs. How is it racist. My Chinese neighbor kids could have helped and put it in college essay. [/quote]
umm.. ok, so if a black person doesn't help out the community it's still ok for them to get affirmative action?

Your post itself is racist.  I'm Asian American, and I have helped out my elderly white neighbors, shovel their snow, etc.. while the young fit white guy on our block did nothing to help them out.

Your anecdotal stories are ridiculous.

Here's mine:   a white R just threatened to kill members of the free press, therefore all white Rs are crazy and a danger to society.  All white R men should have their gun taken away. See how ridiculous anecdotal stories that lead to generalizations seem?
