[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No more fake white “Latinos” whose European ancestors moved to South America getting admissions preferences over other similarly white students. [/quote]

A truly absurd loophole.[/quote]

How about the people that are like 1/16 or 1/32 black or hispanic claiming these preferences.  [/quote]

Data of this happening?[/quote]

DP here. I don't think we need data. Of course, this is happening. Hello!? Why wouldn't you claim that knowing that it would give you an advantage? I have a Hispanic last name, and you better believe I'm claiming Hispanic (though I'm not). It's not like anyone is checking the validity of these claims. [/quote]

Under some colleges' definition you can claim to be Hispanic if you simply were born in one of the latin countries or Puerto Rico. That is right. White mom travelling on vacation and delivering a baby there, the child was able to claim that he was "born" there and therefore he is Hispanic. [/quote]
Just goes to show what a farce the “Hispanic/Latino” designation is. [/quote]
