With this open secret, most know the reality when walking around Harvard and Ivy League.

If current trends continue based on self reported race in college admissions... In the future most “white” people in Ivy League will be the following: mixed race (mainly half or 3/4 asian), middle eastern (arab/israeli/Iranian), or light skinned Indians. The rest are legacy WASPs.

Most Hispanic people will be white people with a Hispanic name like Beto o’rourke. Most blacks will be from the Caribbean/African princes/non Slave descended blacks like Obama/Kamala Harris. The asian quota will be reserved for rich Chinese intl students. Native Americans will be Elizabeth warrens.

So really most Americans get shafted here by affirmative action. Protestant whites, slave descended blacks, asian Americans, non white hispanics and actual native Americans.

To protest this, whenever I am asked for any race I always randomly put down a different race even if my last name obviously shows what race I am.

Beto O'Rourke? The Ancient Order of Hibernians would like a word with you.
That’s the point lol. His first name is Robert but he goes by Beto to appear Hispanic to appeal to Latino voters in Texas.
Why not have a DNA test to determine ethnicity for college admissions?
What if I don't feel comfortable sharing my DNA?
I'm sure there are plenty of educational opportunities outside the USA.
If it worked for Rachel Dolezal, it would be unfair to deny the same strategy to students.
And for Elizabeth Warren.
