[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not Asian but I hope they fight back. In my city, our number 1 magnet has a high Asian population. Similar things are happening with the admissions process. However, a large percentage of the Asian population have parents who are poor immigrants. People keep throwing the word "privilege" around. I am mot sure how being a poor immigrant and probably a high percentage are not documented make you privileged. [/quote] What do you think about giving economically-disadvantaged students a little boost in admissions? [/quote] I have no problem with that. My point is that many Asian students in my city are disadvantaged. They have poor immigrant families. Many are not documented. I do not think it is fair to try to cut them off from admissions into top schools just because they are Asian [/quote]
