[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what prevents an Asian self-identifying as Black or Hispanic when applying to get the Black or Hispanic "boost"? Are they going to look at the skin color and say that the "color tone" is not right?[/quote]

On that note, why can white Europeans (non-Latino) with parents or grandparents who lived in Spain get an admissions boost for being Hispanic?  [/quote]

I think you have it backwards, that Hispanic refers to Western Hemisphere, while Latino refers to Spain.  'Latino' is a word in Spanish and Portuguese.  Perhaps even French Caribbeans should be included.[/quote]

PP had it correct.  Hispanic (SPAIN) is for those of European descent.  Latino (LATIN AMERICA) is for those of Latin American or South American heritage.[/quote]

Besides the point.  What's the answer to her question "why can white Europeans (non-Latino) with parents or grandparents who lived in Spain get an admissions boost for being Hispanic?"  [/quote]
