[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nice try, but Asian Americans aren’t blaming Whites or any other race, but the current non-merit-based admission process that considers student's race. The last four years have clearly shown that the admissions process is now race-aware, as achieving the same diversity composition is impossible without factoring in student's race. Except for this past four years, there hasn’t been a four-year period in TJ's history where the racial composition has been so deliberately constrained and exact same percent split.[/quote]

It's basically a cross section of the applicant pool.  It's not contrived, it's random.  Eliminating merit will reduce asians and increase whites because that is what the applicant pool looks like.[/quote]

Is that the case?  It was my understanding that fewer White's were applying and that one reason for the change was the overall lack of interest in the wider population, especially among URMs and also whites.  IOW, both before the change and after, the classes reflect the applicant pool.[/quote]
