I didn’t make that argument. The argument is that those attending the institutions are dumber than the Asians and whites they’re replacing (edit: at the margin, obviously), because schools unfairly discriminate in their favor. These aren’t pygmalion geniuses from the ghetto, they’re middle-class kids with cell phones and laptops. Half of black Americans in the Ivy League are from post-civil war immigrant stock. An over-represented minority.
- TheFullStack 7y agoI am an Asian who was definitely discriminated against during the college admission cycle. It really really sucked. Luckily out here in the "real world", a lot of that discrimination flips and I benefit from being an Asian in tech in many ways. I don't feel the least bit guilty about it either.
