Who am I kidding, that’s this nation’s favorite past time!

Other minorities rejoice…you’re finally at the white kids’ table, for the next 6 months or whatever.

    Harvard's current student body:

    39.6% White, 27.5% Asian, 10.8% Hispanic/Latino, 9.3% African American, 2.2% Native American/Alaskan Native/Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, and 10.6% mixed-race or unknown

    US's current racial makeup:

    60% White, 6% Asian, 20% Hispanic/Latino, 13% Black, 1.6% Native, 3% mixed-race

    So even with their weak-ass AA policies, they're still way way way off being even close to representative.

      That can’t be right people all day on twitter have assured me white and Asian people aren’t getting in!

      That's interesting, way closer to representative than I thought, but yeah lmayo who complained about AA are clearly ignorant about all the wealth-based discrimination that more than eclipses any disadvantage they have because of AA.

        The people who run Harvard are the libbest of libs, and if there is one thing libs care about and actually deliver on where they can it’s representation
