Asians’ low personality score was based on the perception that they’d study too much, be too quiet in class, would struggle to contribute to group and team work because of their docile natures, and probably couldn’t perform in leadership roles.  That’s exactly what they received negative scores for *consistently*.

It is absolutely a racist stereotype that Asians are ‘typically’ the quiet kid in the back acing all of the math tests and never getting into trouble.  They are great tonhsbe in the classroom…..bu not in any leadership positions because they’re ‘probably’ too quiet, etc.

What a disgusting racist trope.  It’s just shocking an institution like Harvard promulgated this and has all sorts of racist supporters like this thread shows.  This is EXACTLY why Asians continued to be denied positions of power in both the corporate world and government even though they do everything right snd often times far better than everyone else.  Enough is enough.  I’m glad Asians finally got pissed and are standing up for themselves.[/quote]

It’s true though. They have been programmed by their parents to be docile and obey orders, not to counter authority and not to make their own decisions.  This is cultural norm.[/quote]

And what is wrong with raising kids who listen to their parents and defer to authority?  Those kids become the citizens who form the bedrock of any functioning society.  If you look at how to raise children, that is the ideal because parents are the primary teachers in a child's life, passing down tradition, morality, values.  It's a modern fad to think that children should decide what they do in all areas of their life, that they somehow either have inherent passions or none.  Asian parents for the most part, assume their kids are blank slates that can be formed by good parenting.  Maybe the URM parents would do well to adopt this outlook rather than buy into the modern crap that keeps their communities down by teaching them that they either have it or they don't (in which case they need to rely on govt handouts and affirmative action).

Nobody wants to go to a college where half of the students are under intense parental pressure to get into Harvard Med School or be shunned by the family. [/quote]
