Harvard is a private institution. Absent violating the law it can choose any path it wishes. There are many nonprofits that work solely with non-citizen clients. That’s not the test. And research funding is because the government thinks it’s worth it to invest. And Harvard has, simply put, more money than most countries. So it has some remarkable independence. in my view, it has used that independence to make a very high-quality education available to people with relatively low incomes, and has done a lot of good. People may think otherwise, but it is an independent, very wealthy institution that makes its own decisions.
If Harvard truly wants to support URMs, they can do better. They can invest in the URM communities k-12 to better prepare URM students. They have the resources.
This x 100

Are they "capped"? Do you have a source for that?

You seem to not know the difference between the population going to college and the US as a whole. Only 50% of children are non-Hispanic white.
The racial make-up of college-ready students is vastly different than the overall population.
This. I am a huge supporter of deploying more resources to URM students in pre K, and in K-12 especially the earlier grades. That would be more effective in bringing SAT scores and GPAs up

This is when the word is used in reference to adults.
You are a racist troll. Fortunately, people like you are a shrinking minority, and the world gets made better by people that wish it so.
And you are an overly dramatic whackjob who is just screaming that everyone is racist for referring to black boys (not men) as black boys. The horror! And you are still unable to respond rationally to the valid question of what your favored term is. Maybe you are the troll!
I don't have or need a "favored term". I know what you used is inappropriate, and was even decided so by a court of law. I offered a suggestion that you not use a certain term on the chance you were simply ignorant of its effect. You no longer have that excuse. You are a disgusting and shameful person and I am now done with you for good.
You are “done with me”? Yay! Can you go away now? You best get back to your social media SJWing.

You're either clueless or a flat out racist troll. Either way I'm not playing. Enjoy being pathetic.
You still haven’t answered. What is the word that perfect woke you uses?
