<p>you know the red headed kid with 30,000,000 youtube views???</p>
<p>most likely you are referring to a different video, but it was worth asking…</p>
<p>Nah, the video I’m talking about has only 950 views.</p>
<p>“political views fall under diversity, not AA. Just like whatever else the college seeks.”</p>
<p>Exactly. But one of the challenges adcoms will face is that political identity is fluid, especially among 17-year-olds. It’s quite rare that young people adopt a different ethnic identity over the course of four years; somewhat more common that they adopt a new religious or sexual identity; yet utterly normal that they change their political identity. It’s still valuable to have people coming in the door with a range of experiences and starting points, of course. You just never know what you’ll end up with in the graduating class as a result.</p>
<p>I would think a true conservative wouldn’t take the advantage because of their beliefs, would be counter to what they believe i would guess. If someone doesn’t believe in a leg up for anyone, then they can’t take advantage themselves.</p>
<p>Speaking of which, my daughters asked me for money to start their own business cause someone suggested it. Let me go break open the ole Swiss piggy bank…</p>
