Double Counting
How is a Canadian who is part black and part Chinese classified by the nose counters at Williams? I don’t know.
I would assume that “Pookrum” filled out the Common Application and checked several boxes. Does Williams keep track of non-American racial classifications for enrolled students? If so, why isn’t this data reported? Certainly, the state [...]
