Yeah, I knew several black students in my classes who were open about the fact that they thought it didn't matter if they weren't at the top of the class, all they had to do was pass and they'd be offered a great job because they were black and had Affirmative Action. Well, none of them got great jobs. The ones that did get job offers lost the jobs within a year and ended up somewhere else. The black students I knew who did well and graduated at the top, they are set up for life in great careers. I know white students who graduated at the top, same course of study, and they are still struggling.
What is the course and school? Usually, the top guys of all races get jobs unless the school is not that good.
Flip side: One college classmate was an older student, Air Force veteran, military tech schools (it was obvious that he already had technical experience), member of Eta Kappa Nu (the IEEE honor fraternity), an officer in the student chapter of IEEE, and a 3.85 in electrical engineering. A campus recruiter told him that he had the job offer because they had to meet their quota of blacks. He got a better offer from another company who saw his qualification.
