I think that Stuyvesant should close its doors forever. I am not alone in this opinion.
It is a pressure cooker that discriminates in insidious ways against minorities. It gets tiring to hear repeatedly in this forum that one race or another is genetically superior. You may be financially or culturally superior but that does not give you the right to gobble up all the spaces at an elite institution such as Harvard. That is the very heart throb of blatant discrimination and a complete lack of any sense of social justice.
As some have said Harvard is no Caltech nor does it want to be. Harvard has kids that want to go on to finance or consulting or to just teach high school history to underprivileged kids. Harvard has a big view of the world and the value of diversity. So Sessions can look all he wants at Harvard it will not change Harvards mission to value people of all races and all backgrounds
Schools like Stuy and some HS in the bay area just lead in many cases to neurotic mal adjusted teens on the verge of suicide. I see nothing good about that. They don’t need Harvard they need a sense of priorities and a meaningful view of life. Creating more suicide clusters is not the answer
