<p>…Nearly 40 percent of the Class of 2012 is composed of
international students and U.S. students of color…</p>
<p>Why is it now that a large measure of excellence at our top institutions is how many colored and international students can be admitted? I don’t understand how that makes for a better and stronger American. I guess all we need to solve our problems is more diversity - is that it? Is this also part of the reason tuition cost are now $40-50k each year so those that have can pay to educate international students?</p>
