- byoung2 6y agoAnd yet Black students are better represented than non-Jewish White students. Google "Princeton Basketball Team" or "Princeton Football Team" and you will see that Blacks are over-represented on these teams (27% to 30%). I suspect many other sports are similar. You can see how colleges boost the number of Black students in areas where it serves the interests of the school. https://goprincetontigers.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster https://goprincetontigers.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster https://goprincetontigers.com/sports/football/roster/2019 https://goprincetontigers.com/sports/football/roster/2019
