My wife's parents came to the United States from the Philippines. It's a very odd twist that our mixed-race children will benefit on their college admissions forms by checking the box for white.

Completely unfair. I would vastly prefer to walk into any college campus in the United States and be vastly outnumbered by Asians who earned the privilege to be there than to see them be more representative of the population as a whole by changing the standards for different groups.

Claiming or being Jewish would be the most advantageous to get into a top school. Way overrepresented ethnic group even accounting for higher IQ distribution.

What's even more disturbing is the fact that a lot of the justification of discrimination against asians, requiring higher test scores etc. is from none other than Ashkenazi Jews. Imagine the outcry if they were limited to be closer to their population percentage. If people actually cared about racism and being logically consistent, their first concern should be this massive overrepresentation of Jews. They don't.

The expected result from what you're describing is people claiming that they aren't Asian, but the article discusses more people claiming that they are multiracial.
