Although our employees are diverse on some axes, we're 90% white. There are also class barriers to attending Hacker School - while Hacker School is free, living in New York for three months is not.
I can't help but laugh sometimes. Good thing all the rich white women feel comfortable!
But seriously, how is it possible to have so few Asians? Usually the "problem" is that there are far too many. Maybe we need affirmative action for Asians, for once?

- thumbtackthief 12y agoThe employees--of which there are 7 or 8, I believe--are 90% white. Hardly a decent sample size. The attendees are much more diverse.
- streptomycin 12y agoGood catch. That should be an easier problem to solve. If a few of them just volunteer to give their jobs to minorities, that will do wonders for diversity.
