Op. I find it fascinating how triggering this is for some people.

You asked for

“a good majority of these.” While it’s not quite a majority yet, Harvard is up to 41% Asian. Is that diverse enough for you?

I asked specifically if the friend good has a good majority of the various ethnic groups. I'm not sure Harvard actually has the diversity I would seek.

In the op and did not write this response. But this is interesting.

If the friend group isn’t diverse enough, could you maybe set up a few play-dates with multicultural families?

With the increased focus on universities available to area students, located in the UK and also in Canada, I feel there should be a broader focus internationally.

What about Africa? In particular, what about the American University, Cairo?

Hi OP!

Good you are focusing on this! Everyone needs to.

AFA seeking out a majority of Latinx students, what about universities in Florida, Texas, New Mexico or Arizona? Many are close to majority Latinx / BIPOCs.

Alternatively, are they interested in the many excellent, top-notch universities in Latin America?

I have a white kid who goes to a diverse HS and has a very diverse friend group who has noticed when there is a significantly higher percentage of white kids at some of the universities we have toured. This is something that they have been keeping in mind when looking at where they will land.

Why don’t you name and shame those top colleges? 😉

Every T50.

If you’ve found your child’s social group is not diverse, you really must sit with your discomfort and ponder your mistakes, missteps, and implicit biases in your parenting.

If your answer is that your child’s friend group isn’t very diverse, do you feel guilty about that?

You should. Honestly ask yourself: have you done everything you could to advance diversity in your child’s friend-group?

Lame
