[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know how anyone can do more than guess about whether ties to Spain helped people get admitted to colleges. Having worked in a few bureaucracies, I can say that most people are not above cutting a few moral corners to keep their superiors off their backs, especially when it comes to touchy topics like race & ethnicity. I live in an area where there are lots & lots of engineers from India. Years ago I heard a rumor that some of their employers were not above counting at least some of them as African American to meet diversity goals. I have no confirmed knowledge of this, but who knows? Whenever you have a rule you can expect someone to try to get around it. Look what Sen. Warren did, & everybody is apparently just fine with it.[/quote]
