I’m sure admission officers see all of that. The thing about people who are part of an URM is just that: they’re underrepresented. We do not live in a post-racial society, and unless measures like affirmative action are taken, they will continue to be underrepresented. The more effectively these measures are taken, the faster we will progress as a society. Once we’re all equally represented, affirmative action won’t be needed.</p>
