| don't want to go college because of too many asians http://www.news1130.com/news/local/a...-are-too-asian
intellectual cowards scared of a little competition
might as well save your college money and go do something else because in real society competition is even more fierce

Wow I just read the article, if all non-asian people think this way, (which they don't...) it's going to be a complete asian takeover in the next few years.
I remember back when I was in elementary school, Richmond wasn't even half as asian as it was now. Slowly as the years went by, asian influence grew greater and greater. I think there is some merit in the non-asian's arguement... Only because it is probably true in most cases that parents push their children harder to succeed early on and some even till past their high school years.
In Japan, high school kids study harder than anywhere i've heard of, imagine a day where you wake up extra early (around 5-6am) to do your homework, go to school the whole day, grab whatever snack you can afterwards, and march straight on to cram school for another several hours.
The funny part is once Japanese students graduate and go to university... It's an all out party |

The only reason this should be a concern to anyone is if there are not enough people enrolled to have the courses.

Oh, I suppose you could also be pissed off if you wanted a minimum wage job and have to compete with these racists.

Thanks - that was interesting/bizarre for me to read. I never considered a school's ethnic demography as any factor in education selection (I am a 'Banana').
Direct URL: http://www2.macleans.ca/2010/11/10/too-asian/
I don't always agree with stuff published in Maclean's as many articles I've read both now and in the past seem to have some sort of indescribable edge/bias... but they are pointed and thought-provoking.

That MacLeans article was really interesting, some parts of it are so true too
If it is scientifically proven that Asians are smarter than others, then they can complain. But there is no such thing, so what are they ranting about? Blaming Asians for their own lack of determination, they're just fucking lazy to work hard and are afraid of a little competition
If they think its hard to get into a university here in Canada, they should really visit Asia

That's some pathetic thinking. Why compete in life in general then? I must say I'm disappointed with these kind of people. Posted via RS Mobile |

I must admit the jump from a 90% white high school to a 95% colored university was a big change for me, but it doesn't bother me... everyone is just as friendly |

and if there was ever an EQ/IQ ranking by popultaion of everyone in the world..i wouldn't be surprised if koreans and jews top the list.
