[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue is not just relying on test scores: it has to do with a concerted effort to limit Asians at some of these schools because they don't want a student population that is skewed towards Asians. This is outright racism and should not be tolerated. Check out this link and how blatant the discrimination is against Asians. [url]http://www.jewishjournal.com/thewideangle/item/tolerating_intolerance[/url][/quote] Cal Tech is over 60% Asian. I don't think that's discrimination.[/quote] And that is precisely why some of the elite colleges discriminate against Asians. They don't want a student population that looks like Cal Tech. It has nothing to do with wanting well rounded applicants ...... it has to do with wanting fewer Asians so that they don't end up looking like Cal Tech.[/quote]You could use the same argument about other races. Respectfully, do you feel that every university should be overwhelmingly Asian because statistically the number of Asian applicants has significantly increased?[/quote] Not at all. But the fact that elite schools do limit the number of Asians is not seriously debated any more. It is done under different guises but the end result is the same. Now whether this can be proven in court is a different issue.[/quote]
