There is a new and stimulating piece by Ron Unz, in The American Conservative.? The article covers plenty of ground, but I took away two main points.? The first is that there is massive and quite unjustified bias against Asian and Asian-American students in the U.S. admissions process.? Yes, I already thought that but it turns out it is much worse than I had thought.? Yet many people support this aspect of our current admissions systems, either directly or indirectly.
The second point is the claim that Jewish academic achievement in America is collapsing at the top end, in relative terms at least.
For reasons which are possibly irrational on my end, but perhaps not totally irrational, I am not entirely comfortable with the religious and ethnic and racial ?counting? methods applied in this piece (blame me for mood affiliation if you wish).? Still, it is an interesting read and after some internal debate I thought I would pass it along, albeit with caveats.
In any case, the link to the article is here.
