See, you can't be racist against Asians but it's perfectly fine to be racist against whitey.

You woke leftist disgust me.

I actually don’t think this is true.

“Cultural silos” (whatever that means) can be allowed
We don’t “need” diversity for innovation; we need best & brightest for innovation

That means lots of Asian & Indian students.

Corporate America vehemently disagrees with you.

Innovation requires a lot of skill sets and perspectives, not just kids who are really good at memorizing things in cram schools.

Ok. So let’s say the highest performing students are not allowed in the most academic schools. And instead our most creative students are allowed in our most academic schools: what happens? They perform poorly in their classes. That’s my guess.

Why push creative students to be highly academic? Why not allow creative students to be creative? They should be filling our art schools, or theatre and music schools. They should be pursuing liberal arts education, which is VERY important field of study.

We need engineers and doctors and economists. The fact that many of them are Indian and Asian shouldn’t bother people.

Corporate America might vehemently disagree, yet if you look at who is sitting behind the tables in the engineering labs, you don't see the same faces that you do in the media.

Engineering and innovation are not synonymous, dummy

"The petitioners accuse Secretary of Education Atif Qarni of using Thomas Jefferson and other elite Governor’s schools around the state as a “Petri dish for experiments in social engineering.” They share the goal of increasing the number of black, Hispanic and economically disadvantaged students at “TJ,” as the Fairfax-based science and technology school is known, but not through the use of “short-sighted race-based solutions.”
