Marc Andreessen: if you're the parents of a smart kid where I grew up [rural Wisconsin] and you think you're going to get them into a top university in this country, you're fooling yourself...
What level of untapped talent exists in this country that a combination of DEI and immigration have basically cut out of the loop for the last 50 years?
Marc: Nobody wants to talk about, but I've started to talk about the intersection of DEI and immigration that has really warped our perceptions on high skilled immigration over the last 50 years.
You look at the foreign enrollment rates at the top universities, which went from 2 or 3 or 4 percent 50 years ago or whatever to 27% or 30% or 50%...
Joe: Columbia's over half.
Marc: 70% or whatever it is. And so there's been this massive transformation in who gets educated. And then there's been this massive transformation of who gets admitted through affirmative action, as we now know it, DEI.
This goes straight to the political divide in the country, which is, if you're parents of a kid where I grew up [rural Wisconsin] and you've got a smart kid and you think you're going to get them into, you know, a top university in this country, like you're fooling yourself.
There is this really fundamental question which is, what level of untapped talent exists in this country that a combination of DEI and immigration have basically cut out of the loop for the last 50 years?
And how long can we have this story to everybody in the Midwest and in the South that says, sorry, because of historical oppression, your kids are SOL.

It's cool that he's talking about this publicly. But if you're a billionaire who is set for life, and genuinely trying to solve this problem, you can do a lot more than bringing up what already happened. The past is the past, we can't change it
You can call out the people who are currently the problem: Indians. Our enemies who are displacing white Americans in high-skill jobs that are critical to the national interest are not some kind of un-nameable abstraction. We know who they are. They're Indians
Andreesen and others need to be calling out the Indian problem explicitly and taking action against them. Everyone in this country hates Indians and wants them gone. This is not a remotely controversial or dangerous position to take
The first public figure who explicitly names and calls to remove Indians will become overwhelmingly popular. It's crown-in-the-gutter territory. It's in the self-interest of an ambitious person and it's also the right thing to do

The real problem with ivies are nepos. DEI is a drop in the bucket. It's legacy admits that are ruining everything.
And the main reason schools fight this so much is that prestige and rankings are tied to how exclusive and rich the student body is. There is no academic difference between Harvard and a directional school. But the main reason businesses and institutions prefer a HYP grad is because of prestige. It's the idea that it's good school. And that idea comes from history, research/achievements, influence, and exclusivity. Everyone knows that Ivies pick students based on how rich and famous their parents are. The entire point of the institution is to perpetuate the elite class. So yeah, they're not letting randos in the door in the same way that they aren't letting influencers into the co-op or brown people into the South Hampton Bathing Corp.

I can't remember who proposed it - but it seems to me the best solution should have a minimum academic standard. So for Harvard, maybe you need a 1450 SAT score and a 3.9 GPA- or whatever it is.
Then you take everyone who made that standard and said "You met the requirements to get into Harvard."
Then if you have 1,000 spots and 10,000 people who met the standard, you hold a lottery and those 1,000 people get to go to Harvard.
That way, (i) the "rejects" know it was luck, (ii) the applicants know it was luck and they aren't god's gift, and (iii) you don't have grown adults debating whose personal essay (written by chat GTP / a college consultant) make 18 year old kids a better person than other 18 year old kids.
