I don’t quite understand this. Caucasians are already a minority at Harvard
It has nothing (really) to do with minority status. Also, it has nothing to do with various groups of so-called minorities. It is all about black people. The reason “hispanic†— which is not a race; it’s an ethnicity — students are courted is because schools like to lump them in with blacks to pump up the numbers of “minority†students. However, hispanic students can be found in abundance because anybody who speaks Spanish and hails from Spain, Central, or South America, or has ancestors who hailed from there, can check that box. But don’t be fooled: it is really all about black students. Despite being 13% of the US population, they underperform at every level all through school, yet are the noisiest when it comes to attributing everything to racism. So, elite colleges are obsessed with pumping up the numbers of black students.
