[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If applications at a college or private school declined 15% in just a few years, as has been the case at TJ, people would be asking why. There's clearly a declining demand for what TJ has to offer compared to other schools in the region.[/quote] Almost all of the "10-15%" decline is due to less whites applying (not blacks, Hispanics or Asians) and that is the point. The PPs are explaining why that is probably so. Whites being lazy and not wanting to compete with smart Asians. It is interesting that only white applications have declined. Blacks have far smaller chance of being admitted than whites but still continue to apply at about the same number year after year. That should be commended. Whites on the other hand are applying in less numbers because either 1) "there are too many smart Asians at TJ so I am not gonna bother" or 2) "I don't want to apply if whites are not the dominant group in charge". Both reasons should be condemned.[/quote]
