Thanks for your response. I can't tell if you're disputing my assertion that they first decided what their racial buckets "should" look like, then stack ranked

Thanks for your response. I can't tell if you're disputing my assertion that they first decided what their racial buckets "should" look like, then stack ranked within each bucket and fudged the numbers to make it look less discriminatory. It's that last part that I have a real problem with. If Harvard wants to say, "we want x% black and y% Asian, etc".. ok, I guess, but if they're going to say "black people have lots of personality to make up for their lack of science skills", and vice versa to Asians, that's just racist as hell to everybody involved. Own your decisions.
