I wonder how many of these blacks would be attending Ivy League universities if they were held to the same standards as whites. And didn’t get a full scholarship because of their skin color.

True point, I have another research article that shows how much they struggle in college because they were ill prepared coming out of HS for what College really meant they had to do, not the baby sitting they got in Grade and High school, it is a real culture shock that for instance the “thug” mentality does not, or does play on campus...

At the end assimilation especially into Higher Education remains a challenge for them

I thought a few years ago that the tide would turn on affirmative action as it became crystal clear that it was very damaging to the “beneficiaries” in the long term. In fact, it has gone the opposite way; there is more push than ever to give out unearned high school diplomas, college degrees, jobs and promotions to preferred minorities (and it isn’t even being done discreetly). It probably relates to the fact that hordes of non-English speaking immigrants washing up daily are quickly leaving some people in the dust...

Anyone in those preferred groups is suspicious in terms of competence, and the suspicion is usually justified.
