[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s let the census drive the discussion.  A university can have up to the maximum per category below.  If they don’t get enough applicants per category then they can take the next most qualified from another category.

White - 59.3%
Hispanic - 18.9%
Black -12.6%
Asian - 5.9%
Multiracial - 2.3%
American Indian/Alaska Native - 0.7%
Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander - 0.3%

Exactly. Wow, you must be good with numbers!  [/quote]

To add, there are far more Asians at T20 than the census represents. So, if anything, wouldn't the U.S. Supreme Court reduce the number of Asians admitted to top schools? [/quote]

Apparently not, the asians and rich white kids only want to go to school with other similar kids.  They do not see the value in working to ensure bright blacks and latinos go to top colleges as well.  They would not be complaining at all if there were no blacks or hispanics at their school[/quote]

If there were no Blacks or Hispanics at a certain school, only thing we need to make sure is that there was no racial discrimination.
