[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In addition, 20% of the FCPS teachers must be Asian to properly reflect the student population. 20% of the County employees must be Asians to reflect the demographics of the County. 
20% of the County contracts and grants must go to Asians and Asian groups. It is not equitable that virtually 0% goes to Asians and Asian groups.

FCPS would love to get more people applying to be teachers. The same goes for FCPD and FCFD. [/quote]

Well, it’s possible that asians aren’t motivated to apply because they think their chances of getting these positions are too small and don’t want to invest time into it. May be board/county/state should introduce point systems and give booster points for all the under represented races (use ‘some’ proxy classification that implies race) and relax criteria a bit in all the government positions so more Asians and other minorities will apply in future! What do you think? [/quote]

Sure. Go round up some applicants. We need more qualified teachers.

But we don't just want teaching positions. We want representation in the top positions like county judges or in contracts and grants. Just like you are advocating diversity in the top high school (and not any high school), we also want diversity in the top county positions. How about we get asian representation in the Supreme Court?[/quote]
