Dartmouth has an Asian president not too long ago. Here is Dr. Kim being amused by Conan O'Brien.

There should be 2.3 Asian presidents in the Ivy League.

I am strongly in favor of 60% of NFL owners being black. 70% of NBA owners too. Let's do this. Who disagrees and why?? (hint: not the people you think)
There is nothing stopping black ownership in those leagues, other than the price. There are only about 2 black Americans that could afford an NFL franchise on their own. The Broncos (the team up for sale) are estimated to be valued at $3.75 billion. Even Oprah can't afford that on her own.
She might be able to afford the Lions, Browns, Bills or Bengals.

Cal Tech is 45% Asian (plus 8% international, a number of whom are likely Asian as well), 27% White, 12% Hispanic and 2% Black because they have color blind admissions. I have no problem with this as all individuals earned their way in there. We shouldn't penalize people for being smart (as is the case with affirmative action). In a similar light, I have no issues with 70% of NFL players being black. Why do we look at academic ability differently than we look at athletic ability? 85% of lawyers are white. 81%% of the NBA is black. 65% of doctors are white (almost 20% are Asian). 70% of NFL players are black.
True.
Its not that we have shortage of colleges for people to attend.
It should be all color blind admissions. Get in where you can.
Move on from where you can't
