Enrollment and graduates are two different things.



hang on... so you mean to tell me that black people not only dominate physical activities ( most sports ), have pioneered most music, but now they also dominate education? 

thats pretty damn impressive



Even looking into this slightly shows this to be a horribly written article and the headline, "Black Women are the most educated people in the United States," is an outright lie. I don't even understand the point of misrepresenting the facts in this way.

This article is a lot more interesting:

When you apply to colleges it isn't a level playing field. A white male can be be more qualified but get passed over because of his gender and race.

Not really. But its not because of what he thinks. Its because there's so much competition (so many white males that are all on the same level). And then it comes back to that quota. They can only accept so many of each race/gender.

Well I think the same when women are picked over more qualified men just to meet a politically correct quota. I would think the same if it was reverse too

Welcome to Affirmative Action.  Where a skin color can mean more than a GPA.



The rEVOLution is not being televised

What are the statistics for University? Also, for college, what is the actual statistics for graduating, when broken down by each group?
