Focusing on low income families. That by itself would have a positive impact on minorities since they happen to be over represented in the poor families category.
Imo this way poor conservatives don’t feel excluded and work against these initiatives. Same destination, different paths to get there.
Would like to see the data for that if you have it.
There could be other factors but a lot of people like me just don’t want minorities to be held back because of poverty. People can have cultural reasons why they might not go towards education (or go more so than other cultures). Personally, I don’t think it’s up to society to change something like that.
Read the article, some minority numbers went down some went up.
It also says that 40% of population of US identify as non white but in university, 38% consider themselves white.
Doesn’t that mean people who consider themselves white make 60% of the population but only 38% of the admissions? Sounds like removing this law is making admission rates closer to population demographics.
Edit:
The article said that 15% was the number of black admissions, that’s higher than the total percentage in US (12%). So they were over represented, and remember, there could be cultural reasons why some black youth might not think college is worth it more than other ethnic groups (like Asians).

Except in reality this change caused diversity to go down. Like actual real numbers, not theory.

It’s literally the news story this entire post is linked to.
