I mean, why wouldn’t you let in a kid that has the balls to try that i’m their college essay?

Considering he wasn't Asian or White it was automatic.

As someone who’s worked in a college admission office I assure you that this person could have easily gone into the no bin as they did in the yea bin regardless of who they see. it was more the luck of draw the admission counselors found it amusing or ballsy than the color of the skin. And that’s what you need at institutions like these. interesting people with the ability to succeed and take chances.
