Then there would logically be no reason to tip admissions to these mathematics programs in favor of non-Bolivians, correct?

let's not make this an AA thread.
i have to agree with Bay, there is a significant "so what" factor since this scenario isn't

All that aside: for whatever reason, it is not at all "un-PC" to claim that certain races are much physically weaker than others (I recall there was a recent thread in the College Life forum about this, in which this claim was made, numerous times, by certain posters. And other offended parties did not "demand an apology"). But when it comes to a comparison of intellect there's suddenly this huge stigma. Why the double standard? Would the former comment suddenly become unacceptable if success in our society were measured by physical strength?

it's not ok to make generalizations like that either because they are unfair. even if there is some "truth" to those stereotypes they still hurt people just like the Asian-IQ thing does.
