    Too Asian = too academically focused = exclusion of social interaction??
    No. 1 Canadian Magazine,  what is it all about..? well. we all know what is it all about.

    "The enrollment controversy"
    -- "Worries that efforts in the U.S. to limit enrollment of Asian students in top universities may migrate to Canada"

    "Council asks Maclean’s for ‘Too Asian?’ apology"

    <http://www.thestar.com/news/article/908934--council-asks-maclean-s-for-too-asian-apology>

    noted: Rob Ford voted against the request. 

     

     

    "...“This is a non-issue,” wrote U of T president David Naylor in an email. “We’ve never had a student complain about this. In fact, this is a false stereotype, as we know that Asian students are fully engaged in extracurricular activities. So the whole concept is false.”...   

    That's our man!! I don't believe at all that u of t is going to lower it's academic standards by any means. If white kids cannot keep up with it, that's too bad for them. Since when were PARTYING/DRINKING even included as a criteria when it comes to higher education..?? Apart from Europe's elite education/USA's private schools, Canadian public universities chose its path to be a more commercialized "mass" higher education; it has to pay the price then.

  • 基本看了一遍没看出来所以然= =。是不是有报道说加拿大大学要限制asian的入学,然后引起了争论,然后校长出来反驳?哎,这种东西我真是无语了,感觉白人为神马整天种族意识这么强。前两天考英语国家概况的期末考,有一道题目是:why do people migrate to the US?我想了半天没想出来到底有什么理由要= =。不就是生活方便点呗。。这个答案是不是会得分很低= =
    Godsend回复V说:
    不会啊。 老外不是喜欢直接实用的答案嘛。
    那篇是本来刊登在加拿大一个很大的杂志上的。结果因为反对得太厉害,所以市政厅通过决议,勒令杂志向亚洲群体道歉。但是这一决议通过的时候市长是透反对票的。。这个市长去年选出来的。。很反华。
