Harvard's politically correct crusade
In my opinion, the firing of Larry Summers by the politically correct liberals, was a disgraceful moment for the world's greatest university.
President Drew Faust seems to be bent on fully implementing her politically correct agenda. She recently hired Nohria as the dean of Harvard Business, who explicitly said that he wants the school to accept more women, minorities, and internationals. For those of you who read GMAT club forum or follow HBS Guru, the big PE firms got absolutely destroyed in round 1 admission at HBS this year. Firms like Blackstone, KKR, and Carlyle, which usually sends 90%+ of their pre-MBA associates to HBS did dismally. The number i heard for Blackstone is that they went 0 for 4.
I totally appreciate the need to have students from different backgrounds. Business school will be awfully boring if everyone came from a banking/PE background. Nonetheless, I have a major problem when a school accepts people from certain demographics just for the sake of diversity. Once again white and asian men continue to get shafted by the liberals who are obsessed with multiculturalism and making minorities feel better about themselves.
Harvard will remain the greatest school in the world, the standard by which every other school is judged. It is sad though to see this rampant pc agenda.





More Women ? Want More
More Women ? Want
More minorities and internationals ? Do not Want

This new dean is totally missing the point of business school. I hope the alumni can exert some pressure to change this.

Exactly. When liberals talk about racial and social "justice," it really means that they want to screw over whites and asians and give spots at elite schools to unqualified blacks and latinos.
Asian Americans are a
Asian Americans are a minority in the this country. (I hate all the PC racial segregation, but Im just saying)
But no, they will be discriminated against in every step of the admissions process.

Exactly. Liberals only care about minorities if they're black or latino. Asians get screwed over in this country, easily the most victimized group out there.

I bet this new crusade doesnt help out Chinese Americans, not in the slightest, even though we are minority (heck, blacks are a majority compared to the chinese).

Yes, east asians, domestic or international, get screwed over. Liberals despise asians.
I agree 99% with the OP
I agree 99% with the OP except on this point--Harvard will not remain the greatest school in the world--at least business school--if policies like this are implemented, remain and in fact water down the quality of candidates. Top financial, consulting and other firms will ratchet down recruiting at HBS if the quality of their candidates is diminished, e.g. less relevant experience, heavy foreign accents, VISA issues with candidates, etc.

I guess we'll wait and see. The HBS name brand is VERY powerful. I don't think them turning down some PE kids will lead to wharton or booth taking over their spot.
