The answer to your question about who cares is: ADMISSIONS BOARDS. I'm not a URM myself, but you would have to be intentionally ignoring reality if you think that being a URM doesn't matter. The original poster appears to be bright and accomplished. Presumably she is bright enough to have done her research and realized that being black matters. I have no idea what her personal opinion is about the state of affairs is. But all your ranting isn't going to change reality, and a bright applicant will factor in all the relevant considerations. |

zero sense and has no bears no relevance to the substance of my post.
example: "But all your ranting isn't going to change reality, and a bright applicant will factor in all the relevant considerations."
that has nothing to do with my rant; my rant is targetting the hyper-reliance by minority applicants (even the finest of them) on their being minorities in EVERYTHING they do. it's just annoying and like i said, perpetuates a very color-sensitive world; something URMs (nice acronym btw) should be striving towards.
