Why don't Asians just go there? Why are they all so intent in strong arming their way into Harvard if they already have their own version?
Because they are American citizens, perhaps..
Doesn’t matter. All of their families are there. Wouldn’t you find it odd if we Americans just invaded wherever the heck these two top Asian schools are and demanded entry to the tune of 50% of the population. Do you think the Asians in those countries would have a problem with that or would they welcome us with open arms?
Do… do you think that all Asian Americans are from Chinese families?
Yes they are at least in my zoned school district. We are zoned for Wootton.
They even tried to make my kid learn about Chinese New Year but I took my kid out for that lesson and surrounding festivities. You’ll never find a room full of Chinese people trying to learn about Black History or Kwanzaa so please miss me with the bull$*t.

Only barely 24% Asian.
For not living Asia (which I have no desire ever to do), that’s a ton.

And the Asians fell for it hook line and sinker.

Universities in China/Singapore elsewhere don't count because it's not on American soil.
Harvard/CalTech/Berkeley/MIT don't count because those are white institutions that Asians did not build they just ingrained themselves.
Whereas Harvard, Yale, Stanford, etc are historically white institutions.
Howard, Morehouse, Spelman are historically black institutions
One cannot claim Asian Harvards unless they were built by ones community.
Then there are historically Hispanic serving institutions across the country.
No snark here: is there a school that could be described as historically Asian American serving?
People will flame, but Occidental in LA, admitted Asians when they were still being shut out elsewhere, and has had Asian political studies from early on.
Very helpful thank you.

There were not all that many Asian-Americans in this country in the past if you compare the historical percentages to now.

Why not one geared towards Asians?
Break it down more even Chinese or Indian or even Indian Hindu etc.
Howard is where well off black people send their kids to meet spouses and learn about their culture.
Take is from a Jew, Yeshiva University is FAR from a Jewish Harvard. It is an all male school for observant Jews. Nope. I won't accept this. Harvard is the Jewish Harvard without DEI.
Asians and Jews will share it.

What evidence do you have that
1 “MAGA land” was behind Harvard case?
2 Anything has actually changed in college admissions as a result of case? Did more Asians and less URMs get accepted?
3 “MAGA land” is anti Asian? Or anti Hispanic? Or anti Black?
