[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While many people were worried that Black and Brown people were getting an unfair advantage, new stats like this underscore what the future will hold:

Asians/Indians will quickly overtake whites as the majority on campus AND in the most prestigious grad school programs and professions.

And the progress made for blacks and Latinos will be diminished.

You can further extrapolate the ripple effect when whites become the disadvantaged minority. I give it one decade before it’s very noticeable, and within two generations it will be what drives race wars. (Please don’t shoot the messenger; let’s have a civil discussion.)[/quote]

Problem has always been a lack of people skills among Asian immigrants & 1st generation. They can take a test, but struggle to obtain success with soft skills. Institutions like MIT learned the hard way when many would commit suic*de under the pressure too. It was no longer a good idea to admit lopsided students. [/quote]

is that why so many are now ceos? stfu with this dumb racist take[/quote]

It's not racist - you certainly can Google the history of suic*des under Charles Vest's presidency at MIT. There is also the bamboo ceiling as it's famously called. [/quote]

Vest?!?!?

That's like 25 years ago during the dotcom era when MIT was still a predominantly white institution.  The suicides at the time were mostly white and female.  There is no empirical evidence that academic pressure drives suicides.[/quote]
