There's no affirmative action in private corpoations. If you suck as
an engineer you are going to get shit-canned. As it is Chinese and
Asian-Indians out-perform their demographic for obtaining engineering
jobs while other minorities and women aren't well represented.

I said 1% graduated. We might have started out with the 10-13% which
is statistically appropriate. My brother who went to engineering
school a few years before said they made a concerted effort to bring
in blacks and it was a disaster. Their problem was their K-12
education.

After disease, the 2nd most overwhelming factor for wiping out Native-
Americans was marrying white people. There are lot of people in this
country with Native-American blood in them and they are doing just
fine.

The "White Man's World" is one where you get a job that pays enough to
take care of your family. The dichotomy of cultures that is being
promoted by liberals isn't working.
