“I’m sure she had great grades, but her race 100 percent had all those Ivy League schools falling all over themselves to get her in their school.”
Absolutely !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What do you think?
I think it is good to see someone selected for those schools based on merit instead of color.
medecins sans frontiers - Doctors without Borders. She'll be sent to the Southern Sudan and never be heard from again.
Yes. Sad that skin color gives a person an advantage. Why the reverse discrimination issue is “discrimination” no matter how they try to spin it.
“Harvard, Yale, Columbia, UPenn, Brown, Cornell, Dartmouth, Princeton, and Stanford all want to see on their campuses in the fall. “
How about the University of Maryland, the state college of New Jersey?

I’m sure you had the same reaction I did, that she got in because she’s black. I blame the leftist “affirmative action” policies. If the young woman or young man was Jewish or Chinese, Japanese or Korean, or Indian-American, we would all assume the person was a real genius—probably scored 900,000 on the SAT, invented antigravity and speaks 12 languages; the next Nicola Tesla. But....but, sad to say, many of us who’ve attended college know first hand that many Black students are held to a lower standard for admission. And that policy was created by the hard left and very racist Democrat party.
Most of the Ivy league and other highly ranked private schools meet 100% of the need. If she is poor, she’ll get a free ride.
Thanks for identifying her as Ibo. My doctor, a brilliant, perceptive guy, is Ibo, came to America from Nigeria for his MD. I really like him. Family man, precious little kids I ran into one Sunday afternoon. They were coming from church.
Hopefully this young woman has as much going for her.
This says much more about the willingness of elite schools to slobber all over themselves to enroll a smart black kid, than it says how smart she is.
It’s unfortunate in a way for her, because she will always carry the stigma that she got it because of affirmative action, rightly or wrongly.
It remains ever so true that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Bell curve says no.
yea he probably is, if you think about it. every year the news runs the story of the handful of students who get into every ivy league college and out of lets say 7 or 8 only one is usually white. The rest usually non white or non asian.
In a country majority white and also filled with over achieving Asian students that’s odd to me. Stop pretending this is not race based.
That’s fine but again, this is the establishment taking our money to actively discriminate against people.
I had a talented Nigerian friend. American blacks liked him at first because of his skin color, but then hated him because because he wad ambitious, talented, smart, responsible, hard-working, and successful. Sadly, so many American blacks are shameful racists.
Interesting. Thanks for your comments.
Interesting points. Thanks, AC!
To be honest, that is real racist then.
I'm assuming that that would be a massage parlor technician ... capable of giving you an "around the world" ...
Maybe she can write in cursive...?
