Post New York Times on blacks and elite colleges

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/06/24/ed...FFI.final.html

This is a thought-provoking article. What it's saying is that in many cases, black students who are getting into the Harvards, Yales, Stanfords of this world are either West Indian and African immigrants or their kids, or to a lesser extent, biracial children.
The concern is that AfAm students with four grandparents born in this country aren't getting the opportunities.

Thoughts?

And Soror-Moderators, please feel free to combine...
