Bill is right that MIT is a great school. His statement "almost half (48 percent) of MIT’s undergraduates are minorities" is a bit misleading. According to MIT: "The class of 2014 is 36% Caucasian, 30% Asian, 14% Hispanic, 9% African-American, a few percentage points for assorted "other". All in all, it's about 75% "over-represented" and 25% "under-represented."

Sounds to me like it's 100% minorities.

  My great-grandfather fled Mussolini and came to the USA. Does that make me a minority, or does it still count as a majority because my skin is white? :)
