[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The visa issues this year might be part of the cause. A lot of Black students at the Ivies are international.[/quote]

Yes. That is an issue. A very high percentage of black students at Princeton and Harvard are African or from the Caribbean. The troubles with visas for international students will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the number of black students at these schools, especially now that you can't use race as a hook. A lot of talent came from abroad. [/quote]
We shouldn’t be importing diversity-that’s a waste of money and time. [b]If black Americans want to succeed, [/b]they’ll do it on their own accord[/quote]
Whoa! Black American parents want their kids to succeed just as much as any other race or ethnicity. It's also true that even rich Black Americans face specific challenges that others do not. There are a lot of problems with the way college admissions work, including how it handles diversity, but it's hard to take seriously a person who can make a comment like this.[/quote]
