[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Asians with high scores only are a dime a dozen. I think issue is it is not they don’t want Asians they need other things.[/b] Football team, basketball team, cheerleaders, artists, actors, liberal arts majors, women studies majors, school band, fraternity and sorority people. You need upper income, lower income, international students, ROTC so on and so on. My cousin who honestly not sharpest tool went a great school but he was six foot five inch 295 pound star football player of his HS. My sister did not get a scholarship but she was star of her HS plays and even sang on TV. I recall she stared in all her college musicals. Me. I was President of a Fraternity and had season tickets to the teams and did a lot of charity events. The school is a living breathing community not a cram school based on GPA and SAT scores. I can’t imagine anyone want to go to college like that with 20,000 students who all look alike and thing alike who study all day. Even my 4.0 genius kids at my college liked to go to games, plays, keg parties, plays. But someone has to do that which is why schools need not only diversity of people but diversity on everything [/quote] We've heard about the same lies hundreds of times. It's getting old. [/quote] How do they even know they are Asian. I am white but my name is more common for a black person and gives no hint of my nationality and I have no picture when applied to college. Literally put down your name is John Thompson and just not check nationality box. Asians are funny though. I worked with this lovely Japanese women. On a visa at NYU. We did a lot of work at my firm Bank of Tokyo and Mizuho bank and we need a Japanese speaker also very good at English. I hire her and my clients are like she is not Japanese even though born and raised in Japan. Apparently her being white in color made her not Japanese. Then they called her AmerAsian but no one in her family is American. Her grandparents were from England. My favorite a few Japanese people born in the USA said she was not Japanese. Wait she is born in Japan and you are born in New York. Move on folks. [/quote] I'm not sure what you are trying to say here but.. The college application has your name, parents' names and your race/ethicity. More than enough info. to know who you are - White, Black, Asian, half and half, whatever. [/quote]
