When I was applying for colleges I was in a room with three (latino female) students. We were all discussing with an adviser about scholarships and what not. All 4 of us got about a 3.0 in high school, but I had a 32 on my ACT (School was not my thing). You would think if anyone was getting scholarships it would be me, but instead they took a half hour talking about scholarships the other students could get for being latino and female.
Never sat right with me. Not that I deserved a scholarship but I was more qualified than they were.
So I'm against quotas. But if you must have them make them on a socioeconomic level and not a race/religion/sex/sexual orientation criteria.
Time for hype
