This is closer to what I meant, but a few things I feel I should clarify: - I am an immigrant, ethnically Asian (Indian), and moved to the US from Asia (China) - The 'Asians are overrepresented' meme isn't targeted at _immigrants_, but at Asians, regardless of birthplace. When I meet Asians who went to UC, they were usually born in California. - When people decide to implement racial quotas (or policies that allow them to effect racial quotas without calling them racial quotas), they necessarily decide not to treat each person as an individual. Each person becomes just a 'representative' of some racial group.
