[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an Ivy grad and I'm uncomfortable with policies that explicitly limit acceptances based on racial identification. I'm equally uncomfortable with policies that explicitly privilege admissions based on racial identification.

My children are half Caucasian, half non-Caucasian. If the other half is Latino or African-American, they get a leg up. If it is Asian, they get discriminated against. Seems wildly un-American to me. [/quote]

Would it be more American to have the Elite colleges consist of 50 percent Asians, 48 percent whites, and two percent combo of AA and Hispanics?  In a country that looks nothing like that?[/quote]

Not PP but what's wrong with that if it reflects the most qualified students? [/quote]Not one doggone thing EXCEPT that contrary to popular opinion,[b] Asian applicants do not have a monopoly on intelligence.  Nor do whites.  Nor do AA[/b][/quote]

I don't think anyone said that. What is your point?[/quote]
