Is the goal to admit rich people of underrepresented groups? Or to admit poor people with good potential?
From reading about the case it seems like the current approach by Harvard and UNC is to admit people of certain races who are very wealthy. I suppose that’s good if your goal is literally to change the skin color of your college vs to have equal opportunity and admit a diverse student body.
It seems odd that they’d be ok to homogenize by class.
- stametseater 4y agoAsk the students at Harvard if they sympathize with the working class and they'll assure you they do. Ask them if they'd be willing to transfer into a perfectly respectable state university with a working class student body, and they'll choke.
