I was a tour hostess at the Nationality Classrooms at Pitt. In order to go to the top level, you needed to be able to distinguish the various Asian traits (Japanese from Chinese from Korean, for example) after being shown pictures. And it wasn't just the Asians; we had to have a good handle on who was Norwegian as opposed to German, etc - we needed to be able to greet the various non-Americans with their own language. Talk about being forced to "racially profile"!
