[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not “news” and isn’t a troll. It’s ok for a parent to enter an anonymous forum to express frustration. I do want to know if this is a white male. I worry about increasing racism as a result of this shift in the game. You assume you are too ranked based on measurements that, some argue, put some at a disadvantage. Schools try to create a student population that more adequately represents the world on a global scale, not just a historically white male dominated educational institution. [/quote]

They said the majority admitted identified as more than one race when we attended the info session.  It's pretty disheartening for Caucasian kids to basically be told 'need not apply' at every.single.info session-college tour.  And every college flier we receive makes it look like all of these schools are 95% URM with the students they put on the cover.  I mean if someone was up there in a room full of URMs saying 'the majority of our incoming are white (with a huge smile-isn't that great!!) there would be outrage and lawsuits...oh wait...dope![/quote] A simple check of the school stats disproves your entire narrative. Why would you come here and make things up? It’s not helpful. UVA’s undergraduate pop is 52% white and 18% Asian.[/quote]
