[quote=Anonymous]And what if your kids don’t want to major in or work in CS? Or even don’t view education purely as vocational training? I’m wondering if this is a troll post, since it starts with some pretty racist assumptions that either the OP never had the courage to question and/or doesn’t expect anyone else to question either. Given that there is no Ivy League college without a significant number of Asian students, it’s really on you if you decided that you wouldn’t even apply to see if you might make the cut. So you never know what might have happened. That lack of curiosity and drive alone might have scuttled your application, though, so perhaps you made the right pragmatic decision for yourself. 1. Start with an assumption embedded in a larger question. 2. Discuss the larger question without directly acknowledging the presence of the unquestioned assumption. 3. Pat yourself on the back for your work normalizing the assumption. [/quote]
