[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the Asians are getting all the top spots, how come they don't get all the top jobs? Is it just chalked up to the US being a white boys club, or is something else missing? I am Asian and knew many Asians growing up that could memorize things (mainly Chinese, not really Japanese), but couldn't really think creatively. Working hard is nice, but I inheriting your smarts is better.[/quote] I think there was an article a while back in New York Times Magazine about just this topic -- the fact that there's a sort of glass ceiling for many Asians, and some attribute it to the fact that academic success and career success aren't always based on the same attributes. Anyone here remember this piece? I think it was from 2011.[/quote]
