so with that I'll just let this die.

because your wrong?

[/ QUOTE ]no, because its really a silly discussion. Someone could live in a predominantly white area in a diverse city and see very few minorities. Like wise, someone could live in a diverse section of a non diverse city and think they live in a diverse town.

In a stats class I took about a year ago my stats teacher asked the class to try and guess what the % of minorities in the student body. People guessed Asians were the largest minority(which they were), but they said they probably made up 30% of the student body, however in actuality Asians made up about 14%(or some figure close to that) of the student body.

Its all about perspective I suppose.

It's ok, I think AA is pretty stupid too. So is the Texas's "top 10% of HS class gets into any state university automatically".[img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I went to a pretty damn competitive school where a 3.9 GPA put me barely in the top 25% in a graduating class of 1,800 students. Screw the hicks who were in top 10% in a class of 200. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

This argument about "who's seen more Asians" is pretty dumb. First person to go to Asia wins!
