Diversity is great until you have to live with it, I guess.
“Oh, wait, this particular manifestation of “bussing” will directly affect them and their children, not just the ignorant peasants, red-necks and hillbillies in “flyover country”. “
People tend to make better decisions when forced to live with the ramifications of their decisions. ~ Mrs. Personal Responsibility
Enough to cause problems but not enough to overwhelm the system. Almost as if it were intentional. Weird, right?
Diversity for the sake of diversity is racism
Giving special treatment (good or bad) to a person just because of the color of their skin is racism.
The school administrators should be fired
i love it...
1. An average IQ of 82 implies that nearly half the population is, at least, mildly retarded*. That's certainly qualifies as a "large part" of the population. (*Assuming a normal distribution; with 82 in the middle, instead of 100.)
2. Many moons ago, I took several university math and science courses, in classes with Chinese exchange students (albeit from Hong Kong and Taiwan, not the mainland). Based on that (obviously skewed) sample, the estimate of 105 seems very low.
That said, take the chart with a grain of enough salt to plug your arteries.

you forget all the coolies in the fields. There are a lot of high IQ Asians because there are a lot of Asians.
dumbing down continues
So just like liberals in Boston in the early 80s who were against bussing, these liberals are against minorities... How wonderful...
argumentum ad verecundiam or the logical fallacy of "argument from authority."
Exactly: The good principal is simply issuing a pronouncement ex cathedra - a claim that is absurd on the face of it!
How does a 12-year-old child with an I.Q. of 130, who has just stood up in front of the class and delivered a 10-minute oral report on, say, the flora and fauna of the Burgess Shale, benefit from the next student standing up and presenting a rambling, poorly-structured, cuss-word-laden narrative about "Life in da' Ghetto?"
(Sure, on a meta-level, the bright student will learn an important "life lesson" - Stay away from people of that ilk!)
Even if the "diversity students" were white-bread children with banal learning problems (ADHD, etc.) - or even only simply "slow" - how would that benefit the "smarter" pupils? And how would the teachers' devoting a significant fraction of their time resources to "catering" to the "special-needs" pupils benefit the remaining ("normal" / "above-normal") children? Wouldn't the teachers necessarily then have less time to devote to the "advanced" students?
In short: It is an intuitively false assertion!

Wrong: 25% can result in a near-total collapse of the system!
Regards,
Are you saying that an average I.Q. of 82 for these countries is implausible because too high?

Come on you excessively wealthy Manhattanites, “Diversity makes us great!”
yes. I believe they should be at the level of sub-saharan Africa on that map.
That’s why I mentioned that my sample was “obviously skewed”.
