[quote=Anonymous]"If anything, they are being run over by the BS-educated whites and blacks who need affirmative action programs (by race, legacy or sports) to compensate for their poor academic preparation." I don't think the privileged are poorly academically prepared but may be they would surpass themselves if further inspired by necessity. People can believe all they want that asian work ethic only produces test taking robots but the reality is that complacency serves to handicap their own kids. Preferences based on birth, versus SES, just doesn't make sense when our kids will come to maturity in a global economy that doesn't care about our affirmative action or legacy and sports biases.
