Come on.
>Asians, unlike blacks and Hispanics, receive no boost in admissions.
Just not true.
>The admissions disadvantage was greatest for those in leadership positions in these activities or those winning honors and awards. "Being an officer or winning awards" for such career-oriented activities as junior ROTC, 4-H, or Future Farmers of America, say Espenshade and Radford..."
SHOCK! Blue collar "career oriented" awards don't count for institutions who primarily push people into white collar organizations?
This reads like it was written in 1992.
- fanboy123 16y agoHow is it not true? When ranking avg test scores & gpa the average asian and white scores are usually higher than other ethnicities at top tier universties. I dont see why things like this always come up. That there is preference exhibited during admissions is fact. It is by design. The real question is if these practices have the desired effect on society.
