[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do wonder how this will change students' applications in the future.

Asian students are definitely deserving of these seats, but it's just true that a high concentration of Asians changes the campus culture. Asian students tend to intensify the academic environment but are more introverted and aren't as involved in sports or parties. This fundamentally alters the college experience.

If the entire T20 becomes plurality Asian, my general guess is that many affluent white families will stop valuing these schools so much because they tend to really care about the overall "college experience." Far more white kids are going to opt for the SEC or B10 experience over the private T20s. [/quote]

Doubtful.  Whites haven't stopped applying to and going to the UCs as a result of Asian invasion[/quote]

Actually in CA they have. If you look at the strong privates in CA (which is where affluent white kids go) you will see far lower numbers attending top UCs. They are opting for OOS privates because of the crazy admissions process, crowded campuses and poor housing situation. Middle class white kids are still attending the UCs.[/quote]

Strong privates in CA have large Asian populations. [/quote]

Many do, and some like Harker have effectively become so Asian dominated that others no longer choose to go there.[/quote]

Not just one school. The entire area has become hunger game, cutthroat, grinding miery[/quote]

It doesn't feel hunger games to the asians (and other immigrants).  It just feels competitive.  Your kids are soft.[/quote]

Boring. Anyone wins within China? Your best miserable demonstration. 17% unemployed rate among Gen Z[/quote]

Their Gen Z unemployment rate is closer to 12%   https://www.newsweek.com/20-million-gen-z-jobless-in-urban-china-11241243
Our Gen Z unemployment rate is about 10%   https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/LNS14024887

Who knows your data is correct or not. Are grinding hard and winning at all cost make their lives better so they stop coming to the US?[/quote]

The standard of living in China is definitely better today than a generation ago but there is low hanging fruit here that doesn't exist in China.[/quote]
