[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still think OP is trolling. But I would agree GDS diversity numbers are less impressive than I'd have expected. http://nces.ed.gov/surveys/pss/privateschoolsearch/school_detail.asp?Search=1&SchoolName=georgetown+day&NumOfStudentsRange=more&IncGrade=-1&LoGrade=-1&HiGrade=-1&ID=Y9101619 799 of 1075 students (almost 75%) are white? Only 86 in the whole school (8%) are black?[/quote] To put things in context, that's less racially diverse than NCS. http://nces.ed.gov/surveys/pss/privateschoolsearch/school_detail.asp?Search=1&SchoolName=national+cathedral&NumOfStudentsRange=more&IncGrade=-1&LoGrade=-1&HiGrade=-1&ID=A9300244 12% AA, and 68% white.[/quote] What should matter most is socio-economic diversity. I fail to see how the African-American daughter of some Big Law managing partner brings more valued "diversity" than the Caucasian daughter of a Pooleville handyman. [/quote]
