They don't.  That's been the problem the last decade.  Maybe after one of the worst football seasons ever, the school will re-evaulate and consider a holistic approach to admissions.  There are enough full pay Chinese math wizzes at it is.[/quote]

I truly hope that you are not a STA parent. It would be quite disheartening to know that such blatant racism exists among the STA parent body. [/quote]

Blatant racism or fact-based observation?

This article says nothing about Chinese students being math whizzes, and it isn't even about the full-pay Chinese students to whom pp seemingly referred (boarders). It isn't even talking about Chinese students. It's talking about Asian American students. So I'm sorry, what facts? The comment and the article are not particularly aligned. [/quote]

+1. That PP is an embarrassingly ill-informed imbecile.[/quote]
