CB,
At many schools, Asians do not count as minorities, particularly in graduate admissions or professional programs like law. Same thing with Jewish applicants.

You'll see most schools have a group with the acronym "ALANA" or some derivation of those letters. It means, "African American, Latino, and Native American".

By and large unless you're one of those, you ain't a minority- common sense does not apply.

Yeah, but Asians sure love the SBA set aside programs. And they DO benefit from AA in the Humanities and Social Sciences.

BTW: When I was at U of Chicago, it was about 42% Asian. As a white gentile, I WAS A MINORITY. Did I care? NO! I was there to LEARN goddamit!

"It means, "African American, Latino, and Native American".

Those are the groups the left use for their political ends. Keep them stirred up, brainwashed, and hate filled.

Colleges are just anti-American radical, freedom hating, indoctrination centers anymore. Bases for the lefts army.
