It's not quite the 50% that you say would be a problem "by any social measure", but Caltech has 43% Asian undergraduates, 28% White, and it seems to work out OK.

If Caltech's goal was to identify and mold the next generation's national and global leadership then it would have failed completely.

I don't think people here understand Harvard University. The funny thing is, this level of misunderstanding is so naive and naively self-righteous that it might actually destroy the cesspool. So, good.
