Mary, <If Michigan is like the rest of the US, 65% caucasian is about right.> Michigan doesn't strike me as having many blacks or Hispanics in their population. Especially Hispanics, most of whom are clustered in the southern states like California, Texas, and Florida. Tenchusatsu

US higher education in general has had very aggressive and successful affirmative action programs. US Universities (including the service academies) are the envy of the world. This is one area that we are clearly the best - by a wide margin. Why screw it up? You don't understand........Mr. Harris thinks of himself as a white M. L. King and he has a dream. ted
