[quote=Anonymous]I implore all of you to read up - start with the book "The Gatekeepers", where minority admissions counselors go to schools looking for minority students to round out their classes. Are you Native American? Never mind those Ds and Fs on your transcript - we need you at this baby Ivy, so admitted you are, because we need Native American on campus. Meanwhile, my friend had a Chinese exchange student. Second in his class, excellent test scores, very personable guy, a demonstrated leader. Rejected by a WHOPPING 30 AMERICAN COLLEGES. Every damn one he applied to. Didn't need a scholarship either or financial help. He has to go to school in Saudi Arabia. And y'all have the nerve to bitch about legacies and donations in the same breath? I'd do away with that nonsense too. But y'all want your politically correct BS to stay while at the same time, doing away with what you consider privilege. [/quote]
