[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think most Asians would object to SES-based A Action admission policy. It's the skin color based admission policy that gives me heartburn. [/quote] Me too. And I say this an underrepresented minority parent, so I'm not just some butthurt white person. I am uncomfortable with the fact that my children, whose parents are lawyers and make lots of money and can afford to live in a great school district, have kids play sports/do lessons/travel/be tutored/etc. and basically have every advantage that comes along with being affluent in the US get a boost in college admissions as opposed to say, the poor rural white kid, simply because of their ethnicity. I am all for SES based affirmative action, but do not agree with race-based. Granted my oldest is only entering 9th grade next year, so I have some time to ponder this.[/quote]
