There are a significant number of people who want to go beyond equality of opportunity. Look at the hiring programs of Google, etc. that attempt to hire larger ratios of minorities than the ratios graduating from CS programs.

The ratios graduating are disproportionate to the general population ratio, and may be a sign of a perceived lack of opportunity. There are advantages to a diverse workplace too, so opportunity aside there are good reasons to prefer diversity over the ratios coming out of school.
