@5N2HBAmNUjjhPsY @obatunse Of course. Everyone has a different path.

@TBlackSage @TheYZA13 @forthecomments1 I’m for black affirmative action. I don’t understand why Hispanic Americans get that advantage over Asians. Makes no sense.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@sigmond216 @ChifeDr respectfully no. URM groups which include black Americans, Hispanic Americans have a lower bar to entry re: test scores than Asians. I’m okay with exceptions for black Americans given their history. But why on earth should Hispanic Americans be given an edge over Asians.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@sigmond216 @ChifeDr If it’s about race or appearance, Hispanic Americans blend in way easier with the white Americans you hate.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@sigmond216 @ChifeDr What unfair advantage does an Asian American have over Hispanic Americans?

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@sigmond216 @ChifeDr everyone calls out legacy admissions. using race for races sake makes no sense. why would a Hispanic American have an edge in admissions over an Asian American?

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@aquarisunz your logic makes no sense. Asians dominate elite admissions. if well rounded is what gets in they they are the most well rounded. Other groups need to work on their traits.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@NegroLibre1 Then let’s just say so and make it a law that says we need x percent of black doctors. instead people pretend like blacks and other urm groups don’t have an edge in admissions and are forced to come up with lies about how admissions aren’t using race.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@sigmond216 @ChifeDr yes ofc. I think the biggest issue is allowing Hispanics to have an edge in admissions. I frankly am sympathetic to the case for allowing an edge for black Americans and native Americans. Why in the world do Hispanics get an edge over Asians? Admissions offices went insane.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@ProminentRod why do Hispanics count for affirmative action? I get the case for black Americans and native Americans.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@punished_daniel It doesn’t make sense because Asians dominate admissions. So that means Asians have better personalities?

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@aquarisunz they are putting up

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@drterrysimpson Yes but you bucket Hmong with Asians so that Hmong student with poor test scores but outstanding “other” skills can’t get in.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@blkblkblkblkx @hollerkid1987 No actually by your logic Asians have better presence, leadership, and communication since they make up 40 pct of elite admissions.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@powdercuff You said you need a personality to get into school. And be likable. But Asians crush admissions. So it looks like blacks are the ones who need to work on their personality? Logic is hard.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@TheFinaleT @DrDoctavious Blame the democrats who polluted affirmative action that was supposed to help blacks and native Americans by throwing in every group under the sun. Why do Hispanic Americans get an edge in admissions?

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@wildflower_xo_ @Halfmoonstream1 Also Hispanic Americans should not be included in affirmative action taking away spots from blacks and native Americans.

[Mike Brown @mikebrownUT]

@powdercuff Look around at your elite university. the majority are Asians. But you’re celebrating that blacks make up 5 pct. It’s really weird.
