<p>“Ah, so colleges should admit people based on their physique and genetic pool? Sounds racist to me.”</p>
<p>That’s not what I said… at all. </p>
<p>All I’m saying is there are differences that come from being separated populations. Colleges ask students to identify (honestly) to ensure they get a diverse class, and to ensure that minorities who have previously been underrepresented get a chance of a good education.</p>
<p>I’m not DEFENDING this policy. I’m just advising OP not to lie on his college application.</p>
