<p>In Cornell, the current freshman class is 175 people out of around 3000. so, a bit over 5% black. I would venture to say that since nationally on average there are more women in college than men the amount of black males is probably 2% of that little over 5% in the freshman class. However, given that they are a private school and tend to give better aid the attendance is usually higher. (classes before mine show this). Well really colleges want men of color (color being not asian) in general at their schools, because they are clearly the worst represented group in college in the nation. (Aside from native americans, of course.)</p>
