[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCUM is beginning to sound like a white supremacist site, and I'm a WASP. All the people slamming AA admissions would use any hook they had to get their kid into an Ivy and [b]whites have a lot more hooks than people of color[/b]. Balancing the scales through affirmative action is totally justified. [/quote] +1. White families historically have had significantly more advantages over minority families that have given them a leg up in many realms, including educational opportunities. Note as just one example the current thread about a family friend getting their child off an elite college's waitlist. How many AA or Latino families do you know who can call on friends/associates for such favors? Not even close. [/quote]
