Trump’s Attack on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Provokes a Grassroots Backlash

Yeah, for less qualified white legacy students. Because they damn sure weren't getting excluded for other non-whites. Furthermore, the Georgetown study shows that your racist claim is untrue because Asians were applying int Ivy League schools even when they didn't have the scores. Whites used Asians as a racial wedge to end the affirmative action Asians themselves were receiving.


Really?

In recent years, Asian Americans applying to elite colleges and universities have asked whether admissions offices fairly treat submissions by students of Asian lineage. Scholars have found that Asian American applicants are less likely to be admitted compared to whites, African Americans, and Hispanics, even when statistically controlling for other variables including social class, gender, and extracurricular activities. It would seem at least possible that Asian American applicants are being discriminated against.

Zero grassroots supporting for DEI over merit except from those abusing it or seeking to abuse it. Aka parasites.

Under SAT-Only Admissions, Asian American Applicants to Selective Colleges Would Gain Fewer than 3,000 Seats Out of 120,000, Georgetown University Report Finds
21% of Asian American students at the most selective colleges would not have been admitted under a test-only admissions policy


Court Cases Allege That Asian American Applicants are Held to an Unfair Standard​

Critics claim that if colleges considered only academic merit, Asian American applicants would gain a greater number of seats. SFFA and other affirmative action critics often base their allegations on three factors:
  • stagnant enrollment shares for Asian American students
  • relatively low acceptance rates of Asian American applicants
  • differences in SAT scores between Asian American and non–Asian American students at the most selective colleges.
We find all of these arguments to be unconvincing. Here’s why:

The Asian American Enrollment Share at the Most Selective Colleges Has Remained Stable Over the Past Decade​


The enrollment share of Asian American and Pacific Islander students at Harvard and at the 90 other most selective colleges has kept pace with their growing share of the four-year college-going population. In fact, the Asian American and Pacific Islander share of enrollments at the most selective colleges grew by 4 percentage points even while their enrollment share at all four-year colleges grew by just 2 percentage points between 1999 and 2018.

Asian American Students are More Likely to Apply to Highly Selective Colleges Regardless of Test Scores​


Among students who scored 1300 or above on the SAT, 65% of Asian American students applied to one of the most selective colleges in the country, compared to 50% of non–Asian American students. And among students who scored below 1300, 12% of Asian American students took a chance and applied to one of the most selective colleges, compared to only 5% of non–Asian American students. Since more Asian American students apply to selective colleges, they are more likely to be denied a seat, which is not evidence of bias.


Let us look at the particulars in Students for Fair Admissions v. President & Fellows of Harvard College.

In this case, the contention is that Asians are discriminated against based on the number of Asians turned down for Harvard admission. More than 30,000 students each year apply to Harvard. In 2019, there were 36,000 applicants for 1,600 slots. That meant 34,400 students of all races were not admitted. The claim is Asians get excluded to add black and Hispanic students.

Harvard admission numbers do not support this claim. Asians are six percent of the American population, but they were 25.9 percent of the students entering Harvard in 2021. That is a full ten percentage points more than African Americans (15.9%) and more than double the percentage of both Hispanics (12.5%) and Native Americans (11%). In fact, there were more Asians admitted into Harvard than Hispanics and Native Americans combined.

DEI is not a special designation. It is a policy that allowed YOU to get the opportunity to be interviewed for a fucking job. So Mr. wannabe white Afro Puerto Rican, stop repeating that white racist bullshit.

Requirements to get a job interview - it applies to EVERYONE no just to those of us who wannabe white

1- Marketable employment skills
2- willingness to adhere to the work ethic
3- Prepare for the interview in order to sell yourself
4- Ignore EVERYTHING - all the cliches repeated by the Socialist Demon Rats and their community organizers

Yeah, 4% doesn't sound like much, unless you're one of the 3,000 that make up that 4%.

You were shown that Asians aren't excluded. Not for any other non-white population. Not mentioned are the lower scoring than everybody white legacy admissions that take away from everybody,

“Do you thing the federal government should give every black man woman and child 10 million dollars…”

Yeah you asked that question

If that’s not reparations what is?
That wasn't in reference to DEI though. ..

I was just trying to, for once, get someone to tell me what they think reparations should be. Many talk about it, nobody will ever actually say what they want them to be.

I'm nearly 64. I've hired people son. I don't need your explanation. People have been denied interviews based on their names sounding black. DEI prevents this. So spare me your internalized acceptance of white supremacy and the idiotic labels that Republicans repeat to themselves. It is apparent that you don't have the first clue about what DEI is.

Not what your link said son. And I've probably hired more than you have, mostly black and hispanic.

You don't need to know what they would be. Did you ask this question to the Japanese when they got reparations? Have you asked any of the Native American nations who got reparations to describe what they should be? Stop listening to white race hustlers.

I am 74 years old, worked for close to 55 years - was never late, never absent , tried to do the best job that I could possible do, If I had to do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing ,

The information I posted showed that Asians most certainly were not being excused in IVY league schools. Furthermore Asians really don't like you racists trying to use them to further white supremacy.

That's really nice, all it means is you were born during Jim Crow, and if not for things like AA and DEI, you probably would never have been given an opportunity.

Yet they're suing schools for discrimination, go figure.
