[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The US is only 13% black and 6% Asian. Colleges should be majority white because the US is majority white. The elite colleges that are 50% minority have way over-corrected. [/quote] Harvard's class of 2026 is 43% White, 28% Asian, 14% Black, 11% Latino. Princeton's class of 2026 is nearly 50% White, 25% Asian, 9% Black, 8% Latino. These schools are still not hitting 2020 census marks with Latino and Black populations; they are far from overrepresented.[/quote] Not sure I follow. Black representation in your breakdown is exactly on par with the census numbers for the black population. Whites and Latinos are underrepresented if we are going off census ratios. That obviously means those percentages have to come from Asians, who are vastly overrepresented because they score so high academically. The country is still almost 5% white when you count white Hispanics, about 14% black, 16% Latino, and 5-6% Asian. [/quote]
