It's not really fair to compare the NBA to Harvard. The NBA is a for-profit institution in the entertainment business that is interested in drafting the most talented players to get the most views and therefore, the most most money.
Harvard is a non-profit institute that seeks to create a diverse & successful that leave a mark on the world, which therefore upholds the eliteness of Harvard.
- hejja 6y agoharvard has the right to implement its own standards, to be sure. but who is implementing this, exactly, and on what agenda? it's "harvard" the institution, the non-profit business. instead of having a clear motive: making money, we have to guess what "diverse and successful" means. does a powerful institution in our society owe us an explanation for this? maybe not.

So exactly like Hollywood who has rightly or wrongly be heavily campaigned against because of discrimination, btw it is ironic but if you check the numbers white women are over represented same as black people, the 2 leading-voices among the minorities, its is Asian- Americans, Hispanic-Americans and Native Americans who are completely sidelined in that industry.
