The sad part is there will always be discrimination, all attempts to counter discrimination are in themselves discrimination.
Until students/people are judged purely off their merits there will ALWAYS be discrimination.
The truly sad part is it is openly acceptable to discriminate against whole groups of people purely based on statistics of whole groups. If this isn't the definition of stereotyping i don't know what is. Just because one's motivations are sound doesn't mean we should unanimously assume so are there actions.
Judge people for who they are, not where they are from.
