Maybe the Asian Parents like the Jewish ones put high premium on getting a good education! While the Blacks put a premium on scoring there next pipe full of crack! Seem to me all they are doing is penalizing hard work and discipline ! Its not so much about getting into college that should be the focus its that how many actually graduate with something useful once they get into college and in a reasonable period of time! You can pave the way for anybody to go to say Stanford since this is California, by playing around with admittance criteria but at the end of the day if that student either drops or flunks out, you are doing nothing but damaging the kids you are supposedly trying to help, My grades were never good enough for Stanford, to get in to, let alone stay and actually graduate with deceit grades that would have make the expense even worth while!

A little-known fact from the article..... How did we miss this? And the Princeton study Lee refers to has been widely criticized by academics who argue that it relies too heavily on grades and test scores to draw conclusions about racial bias and that the data the study uses are too old to be relevant. In other words, the study they base all their whining upon is bogus. Another silly myth dispelled. On to the next.

I wonder where African-American Rednecks (like me) fit in?

At least most of them would avoid misusing "your" 4 times in one subject line. How do you count? Oh, you can't. I get it.

My worst nightmare for a college professor is a obese white women. Good Lord do they have a giant chip on their shoulders towards white men.

So what's the big deal? When your kid goes in to take the SAT tell them to check "African American" in the ethnicity question.

The big deal is that checking that box won't do squat. It's the admissions at universities that are using the "formula" to ensure a diverse university population.
If merit alone was the determining factor for admission, most universities would be 90% asian. They do like to study..

African Americans received a “bonus” of 230 points, Lee says.
She points to the second column.
“Hispanics received a bonus of 185 points.”
The last column draws gasps.
Asian Americans, Lee says, are penalized by 50 points — in other words, they had to do that much better to win admission.
“Do Asians need higher test scores? Is it harder for Asians to get into college? The answer is yes,” Lee says.
The ways of the Oriental mind are mysterious and inscrutable. For example, even though they are discriminated against by the People's Democratic Party because of their race, most Asians vote for PDP candidates by preference. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...ian-americans-mostly-vote-for-democrats/It's a funny old world.

Not sure what the deal is.
It's a merry-go-round. It's someone else's turn to be equal for a couple generations, then it will come back around again.
I'm still waiting for animals to be more equal than people. That one will be interesting. Bovine University.

Great. That'll mean Easter Break vids named "Ewes Gone Wild."
(btw, I also count four misused "your" instances in the thread title. You who disagree please show me otherwise.)

I said I was black on my PSAT during my sophomore or maybe junior year. Got a TON of offers, including the United Negro College Fund who eventually asked me to prove my race somehow when I entered a semifinal round. I never even applied for anything as black, just checked the box as a joke when taking the test.
