Total word salad.
Just be honest here - you still call Asian people “Chinaman” don’t you?
Well, doesn't that private university use federal funds for financial aid (especially for people in underrepresented areas these letters are targeting) and shouldn't they then abide by whatever (lack of) discrimination laws the federal government ties to said money?
Hard to imagine the following doesn't come with strings attached:
Basic Financial Aid Information
In this section, we provide a general description of all the federal, state, local, private, and ins utional need-based and non-need-based financial assistance programs available to Harvard Undergraduates. We also discuss the rights and responsibilities of students receiving this assistance.
Awarding
In determining your need-based Financial Aid award, your package will consist of a work component and a Grant component that could be made up of the following funds:
Federal
Pell Grant - This grant is awarded to students based on their Federal Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) as determined by filing the FAFSA.
SEOG Grant - This grant fund, allocated to colleges by the federal government, is awarded to our students with exceptional need who are also receiving a Pell Grant.
Work Study - The Work-Study Program provides funds for part-time employment to help students with need to finance the costs of postsecondary education.

OH NO AN ASIAN MIGHT HAVE TO GET A SCHOLARSHIP AT UF INSTEAD OF PAYING TO GO TO AN IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL LET'S TAKE TO THE STREETS
I never said life was fair. I've expressed my disdain for Harvard and the cesspool of liberalism that it is - but for those Asian kids who DO want to go there/get a letter, they shouldn't have to score hundreds of points more than a Black, Hispanic or Native American student.
LOL at "likability, courage and kindness."
Rich white kids demanding a handout from Harvard
Dude, Chinamen is not the preferred nomenclature
What was your SAT?
He TOTALLY would have gotten into Harvard and not had to settle for a community college certification, if not foraffirmative action
Lmao.He TOTALLY would have gotten into Harvard and not had to settle for a community college certification, if not for
BTW do any of the Rs here who really do truly care about Asians want to discuss why they have completely and totally abandoned them or do they want to go "something something rice paddy field democrat plantation mentality something"
According to AALDEF's poll, Clinton's support was closer to winning four-in-five Asian-American voters (79 percent) with just 18 percent for Trump

Would be funny how quickly Conservatives stop pretending to care about Asians when they listen to their legitimate complaints about Republicans and the direction of their party lmao
How Asians vote should be irrelevant to how one feels about this issue.
For nathan im guessing bout tree fiddy
Pretty sure you or someone else has mentioned that voting trend in the past. It's irrelevant.
Also most people concerned about this aren't fixating on the Asian factor.
Oh so you dont care about them and their opinions?
Nobody said anything close to that.
You can always homeschool instead of sending your kids to Harvard, tbh... I mean, you save them from the savage liberal bias, indoctrinate them into christian values, and teach them how to ensure a lifetime of opportunity and job security investing in bitcoins and holding a government job...
ho
lee
chit
It pretty much looks like you're using them as a pawn here for a pet right-wing issue and don't give two s about them tbh. Probably the only other time you've commented about Asians on the internet is when you reviewed a Chinese food place on yelp
Seems to me that posters who rarely hold back on their opinion on whatever topic are reticent to defend this topic - instead they turn to personal comments. Harvard can say whatever they want about "wholistic" admissions with their "likability, courage and kindness" ratings but how do they defend such different score bars for recruitment letters where they have no idea about the students' personal characteristics.
Yes. Read Bakke v. California and get back to me.
I don't particularly have a horse in this race, tbh, never been affected by AA, either directly or indirectly. I just find it somewhat hilarious that the same people that constantly preach about strapping-your-boots and fighting through seem to be the same people ing about how government is denying them their handouts ITT...
