I thank all of our lucky stars that there are smart people out there in positions of power who disagree with you

Dude what admissions officer hurt you? You tell me the point this assclown is trying to make? How are you choosing to interpret this data to fit your narcissistic worldview and victim mentality?

Or perhaps you don't really have a point and your an elitist intellectual snob looking for a space to be a victim.

What is "this" exactly? And how it reflected in "which" students?

Are your serious? Whites are under represented too. Are you going to say white people are oppressed? Also what requirement is there that a private universities demographics have to directly match the demographics of top testing students? If that is some requirement who set the arbitrary data point for which we compare test scores? Gtfoh
Edit. I think people are misunderstanding my comment. I'm not saying that anything is justified because it happens to white people. I'm also not saying what happens to white people and Asians is racism as the commenter above me suggested. I'm saying their should be no expectation of demographic fairness or proportional equality in university admissions.

Probably covid. The supply chain may not have been able to properly distribute the best products into the market to be considered.

No part of this graphic should lead you or the commenter or anyone else to "this" conclusion. The population of people who take the SAT and the population who enter one of those 5 schools are very different in volume. The chart visualizes students who scored over 1400 on their SAT. That includes plenty of students who just got 1400 and plenty who got perfect scores and lots in between. Without any other info you don't know if the urm group on the right were the most meritorious and worthy of entry or even what their SAT scores are at all other than that it was over 1400.
So that would be a petty stupid assumption, one that I'm pretty sure most intelligent people wouldn't make. I still wouldn't see the link between that asinine conclusion and degree inflation. Even if there's an issue of letting non-meritorious candidates in, there should be no issue of degree or grade inflation just because the wrong kids got in. They'll flame out or underperform (which is actually a much bigger problem that degree inflation). Grade and degree inflation is an issue with the education and educators at those particular institutions. Maybe original commenter is just a shitty educator at a shitty school.
