[quote=Anonymous]University of Texas at Austin - Student Profile White: 45% Asian: 23% Hispanic: 21% Black: 4% Foreign: 4% Multiracial: 3% American Indian: Less than 1% Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander: Less than 1% Unknown: 1% She didn't get in because she was/is a mediocre student. I think what really makes folks so uncomfortable/outraged is that white privilege is affording less and less opportunity to the mediocre set. Most people are mediocre even afforded privilege and all the accompanying benefits that come from being privileged. What exactly are you fighting over the 4% of the pie that you do not believe rightfully belongs to the black students enrolled at UT or the 21% that doesn't belong to the Hispanics? I think the facts of this case clearly state that the vast majority of beneficiaries of the AA program in Texas were actually less than qualified whites. [/quote]
