Ivy league universities in the United States are openly discriminating against "Asian" applicants because they don't want too many of "those people" running around campus–Sorry, in order to "promote diversity".
I guess the Yellow Peril is a respectable phobia so long as it's expounded by Leftist academics.

Good intentions, as implemented by committee. Bonus points for admissions committees now being in the business of determining who gets to be a favored minority, and how many grandparents he needs in a given column to qualify.
But I guess one should expect to jump through hoops in an academic environment. Somehow, with motivation, learning and research end up happening despite it all. What I never understood, though, is how rarely the very intelligent professors and grad students recognize PC for the utter nonsense it is. Maybe they adopt the standard opinions because their brains are fully occupied with their own work: simplified view of reality to leave more cycles free for research. Still, one reason I'm glad to be out of that environment.
