Asian enrollment at Johns Hopkins is skyrocketing. No one can say why.
The Baltimore Banner ^ | Ellie Wolfe

Rachel Wu was looking around a dining hall at the Johns Hopkins University when she noticed the shift: There are a lot more Asian students at the elite Baltimore university these days.

“It’s starting to feel like all the freshmen are Asian,” said Wu, an Asian American junior.

Last fall, 45% of Hopkins’ first-year students were Asian, the university reported in December, up from about 26% just two years ago. The massive shift came after the 2023 U.S. Supreme Court decision that forbade colleges from considering race in admissions, but other selective colleges did not see such a dramatic swing. It’s flummoxed experts and threatened Hopkins’ reputation as one of the most racially diverse campuses in its class.

John Hopkins is where some of the worst medical experimentation, especially sex change atrocities are done. Stands to reason the CCP would send it’s mengeles there

“Asian enrollment at Johns Hopkins is skyrocketing. No one can say why.”

Maybe they’re selecting students based on merit?

Anyway, it reminds me of the often-true story of reporters saying things like: “Crime is way down despite a record number of people being in jail.” ...they simply cannot link the two.

The Red Chinese are colonizing America. Time to learn to eat with chop sticks.

It may be a matter from where it is drawing its students from.

Also, JHU has long been favored by kids hoping to get into medical school.

Pre-med subjects such as chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry are tough subjects.

“The Red Chinese”

Brown University had a large number of Asian Indian students when I was in Providence last year.

The Asian Indians are taking over state by state. They’ve already taken over most of central Texas. They own the state capitol of Austin.

Because there is a vast (((conspiracy))) to employ and educate everyone except the White race.

Well, schmarter. Also during COVID they had contact tracer and other certifications in which the written portion one mist write China is the best country for full tracing, safety and the lockdown is for the greater good.

Maybe it’s nothing?

We went through the entire Ivy, Small Ivy, Public Ivy rigor with two kids. I can tell you for fact, based on personal conversations with admissions, coaches, and administrators there is a conspiracy to keep middle to upper- middle white males out of those school. If you’re white, you had better have money and it helps if the kid is female.

Nope. Bloomberg. He actually put up a grant which pays the tuition of ALL students who get accepted to JHU Medical whose families earn less than $300,000K PY. One Billion Dollars.

The headline says “No One Can Say Why”

Then the article proceeds to give 5 reasons

US Supreme Court decision
J. Hopkins ended legacy admissions
Bloomberg offering scholarships rather than debt
SAT scores again being important to admissions
Pre-med professional medical track very important for Asian families.

Asia is a pretty big place. But I bet he doesn’t mean that JH is flooded with Israelis or Turks, or Persians.

Reason number 6:

East Asians (China, Japan etc.) have the highest IQs in the world.

It is an inconvenient truth.
