[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Judiasm is a religion and culture, not a race. When you check the race box on the admissions form, most Jews check white, correct? And there is no way to know whether an individual is Jewish in admissions (or after admission) unless the self-identify. A Jewish individual who did not want his or her faith considered could go through the entire application process and start college without the school knowing, if the so chose.   For all intents and purposes in college admission, most Jews are white.  Or am I missing something?  I have certainly worked with people and had it be several months before I learned they were (practicing, but not very devout) Jews.  [/quote]
Yes, a Jewish person could hide their religious belief, but an Asian American can't hide the fact that the person is Asian.  Hence, it's worse for Asian Americans.[/quote]

Same for African American skin color.[/quote]

And for short people too, especially redhaired.[/quote]
