[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don’t the T30 (Ivys, S, MIT, top SLACs, etc) simply fill their schools with these high performers rather than affirmative action for Whites and all the rest?[/quote] Because diverse student bodies offer a better undergraduate experience than one with only academic grinds. This coming from someone who was admitted to HYPS schools solely due to academics. I would've hated college if everyone were just like me. The experience was so much better being around peers who were stars in their own non-academic areas -- whether athletics, arts, etc. but could also hold their own academically. I learned as much from them as from my professors.[/quote]
