Limitations and risks of elite admission standards

<p>There is an interesting table in the Journal of Blacks in Higher Education with black admissions numbers for the Class of 2009. Even more interesting is that some top elites withhold crucial pieces of information to prevent anyone from knowing, alternatively, the yield rate, the admit rate or the total number of black applicants. Still, the table shows that all elites make accomodations to achieve diversity, and there can be little doubt that the "stats" of black admits are very likely lower.</p>
