<p>Not all “diversity factors” are race, so it’s not necessary to debate whether Jews are a race, a culture, a people, or what.</p>
<p>Schools can be interested in increasing diversity any way they want–more students whose parents are farmers, more students from Europe, more Republicans…They can also need more theatrical lighting designers, more glockenspiel players, more math majors, whatever it is they need to “build the class.” That’s their prerogative.</p>
<p>If there is a school that’s interested in increasing the number of Jews (and there are some), then it can help.</p>
