[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I realize that this thread was originally about Harvard, but this is obviously not representative of a typical college student. Most white people attending Harvard are from, at a minimum, upper-middle class backgrounds, with parents that both have degrees from very good schools. This is NOT typical of white people (or asians). Legacies hurt everyone except for well-off white people. Lower-middle class, working class and poor white people don't have this advantage and are typically hurt by affirmative action programs because [b]they lack financial advantages that are often incorrectly attributed to them, while still being forced to defer to other races.[/b][/quote] Participants of the oppression olympics need to read that bolded sentence and read it again.
