[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Asians want clear transparent rules, no discrimination, and fair competition. Is that too much to ask?[/quote]

Elite schools don’t care about test scores, they care about leadership qualities, grit & sociability. Part-time jobs in high school are important, too.[/quote]
my DC has all those qualities,  PT job, leader, social, quite well spoken (debate team), and near perfect SAT scores and high GPA from a magnet, but Asian.[/quote]

So did my Asian kid and they were admitted to multiple schools. And guess what? Their classmates are mostly white and Asian. [/quote]
do you understand proportionality?

The classmates are mostly white/Asian because they are the largest group that applies.[/quote]

So what’s the problem?[/quote]
? In the US, it is illegal to look at race for employment and education. That's the problem. Are you daft?[/quote]

So you won’t be happy until you’ve driven all of the nonwhite and Asian students out of university. These numbers are relatively small and at Harvard at least getting smaller the last few years. and contrary to your prejudice, they are all perfectly academically qualified to succeed. No one ever said college admissions is quest to find the 2000 “best” applicants.

And if it’s illegal to look at race unemployment then why are boards of major corporations so white and male that diversity requirements are literally being written into the law in some states? I don’t see you crusading against the lack of representation in corporate offices. But I’d guess it’s  probably because it favors white people [/quote]
You are all over the place.

It is illegal to look at race for education and employment, but progressives have decided that it is ok to look at it as long as you are trying to be diverse.    If it was ok to do so, then I guess it would be ok for colleges or businesses to not want anymore black people because they feel that the number of them that they have is enough?[/quote]

I only see you caring about “discrimination” when it affects white folks. [/quote]
? why would you think that?

I don't support *any* type of discrimination.  Why do you support discrimination when it impacts Asian Americans?[/quote]
