[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We visited there a month ago and granted it was just a 90 minute tour, but DS's impression was that the students walking around looked almost too serious and academic. He isn't a partier, but wants some semblance of a social scene and thought it might not be there. He also felt like the student body was a bit homogenous - all white and Asian kids, which is similar to his current school makeup and so he was looking for more diversity.  Again, this is DS's snapshot impression and could be entirely off-base.  He's applying and if accepted, we'll probably visit again in the spring.[/quote]

I love I’m Cleveland and sometimes go down to university circle for various things, and I am always surprised at the number of Asian students. Like if you go to the ice cream shop near Case, it is half Asian kids.[/quote]

We took a tour and based on what I saw, I'd estimate that 75% of the student body was Asian and the rest were White.  I'm sure the school's demographic data shows otherwise, but my DD didn't feel like there was enough diversity for her tastes.[/quote]

Wow! If diversity is an issue at Case it is not because 75% of the students are Asian (which it is not), it is because the school still admits lot more Caucasian and lot less URMs. [/quote]

PP just said what they saw...the actual self-reported data is 18% Asian and another 18% International...[/quote]

Saying 75% of the student body is Asian when the actual number is close to 20% should be labeled as what - dishonest, racist, ignorant...?    [/quote]

Oh relax dude...it was an observation...
[/quote]

No. You need to stop being so relaxed about racism....wait, you are probably one of the racist one too![/quote]

You dumb*ss - I'm the poster, I'm Asian, and my Asian kid is the one who observed the lack of diversity.
