I was a poli sci major and super into politics for years
The older i get, the more i realize that obsessing over politics is a waste of time and just makes you miserable. Theres almost no intelligent, rational debate in this country anymore anyway. Just echo chambers on both sides and hysteria. Dont even get me started on the media
Youre better off trying to make positive changes in your immediate environment than rage about politics
So i wouldnt say that im not very political. More that i got tired of the media and morons in the country and now i just give out hugs and ask people how theyre doing. *shrug

immigration-
my lib heart believes that someday, with a lot of progress by all of humanity, everyone might be able to peacefully co-exist. however, that day is not here yet. i think thats something we should work toward as people (being tolerant of those who are different from us), but im fine with sovereign countries maintaining borders and enforcing immigration laws
the problem in the US is that there are a number of people (dreamers) who are here through no fault of their own. realistically it doesnt make sense to deport them or even most of the people who are here already. it would be chaos, rip apart families, etc. but they also shouldnt be able to just blatantly break the law with no penalty either. i would suggest a compromise that consists of the following parts. please note that this is what i think is the solution that would best reasonably address the problem, not necessarily what is ideal:
1- ending birthright citizenship for those who do not have citizen parents
2- allowing the illegals who are here to stay if they
- dont have a criminal record
- obtain citizenship within a set time, say 3 years
- pay a fine and back taxes owed (if they are unable to immediately pay, something could be worked out in terms of payment, etc)
3- creating border wall or in some other way keeping illegal immigrants from being able to come here in the future
4- actually enforcing immigration law going forward after this amnesty
5- enacting new laws with harsh penalties that penalize companies that hire foreign workers after the set time period (3 years or whatever) that people have to obtain citizenship
now im sure people are going to jump down my throat and be like THEYRE FUCKING ILLEGAL! THEY CANT STAY! DEPORT THEM ALL! SHOOT THEM ALL! but reasonably, thats not going to fucking happen. what im suggesting i feel like is a rational, logical compromise to deal with a shitty situation that SHOULD have been dealt with 20 years ago
i will address blm/protests/free speech in a separate poast

let me run a scenario by you.
it's 1995. a minority has a 1520/1600 SAT. is valedictorian. is a multi-sport all league and 1 sport all state athlete. has one outstanding extracurricular (think eagle scout or girl scout gold award). That person goes to HYP.
is that person an AA recipient?

Harvard's acceptance rate was already sub-10 percent in 1995, and didn't drop much more until about 2010. It was the other Ivies that got substantially tougher admissions in the early 2000s.
FWIW, I had a 2340 SAT (1600 on M+V, got fucked on essay), 35 ACT, perfect SAT II's, 12 APs, Eagle Scout, state debate champion, salutatorian, and had taken several college classes while in middle school. I got waitlisted at HYP.

Here are the numbers for 1991, which are close to what you say (though 1250 25th seems low):
http://www.thecrimson.com/article/1993/5/7/report-discloses-sats-admit-rate-pa/
Harvard's admission rate fell pretty significantly from 1991 to 1995, though, and of course in the spring of 1995 the SAT was recentered, so I'd guess SAT scores were significantly higher by the mid-90s.

That's the worst side effect of AA imo.
There are some URMs I know from HYP that were really smart, and would've gotten in even if they were white or AZN. But all of them had this chip on their shoulder b/c they were never sure if they really could hang w/ the non-AAs.

True as well.
I think some form of AA- based on their background should be kept but the current system of virtual racial quota needs to end.
Hilarious how lib admins think racial diversity is all they want and not actual intellectual diversity
http://yaledailynews.com/blog/2017/09/14/yale-faculty-skews-liberal-survey-shows/
"Asked this week whether he was also concerned that three quarters of the faculty are politically liberal, Salovey said he views the survey results as “neither a positive nor a negative.”
“It‘s in the educational interest of students to be exposed to a diversity of political viewpoints,” Salovey said. “Having said that, in most fields, the political point of view of a faculty member is not relevant to the substance of their teaching, and so we would need to be very careful about making it a part of the hiring process for faculty.”

do you know him irl? Only talked to him a couple times lol
Lots of admins are really pissed about the recent changes despite being libs.
Laurans apparently was LIVID at changing Master to Head and told JE'ers that it was okay to call her Master
The JE dean that was new when I was there had his hair turn from having some gray to almost completely white and looking haggard in 3 short years, then left to be the president of some small christian LAC. Undoubtedly from recent events.

"moderate libs" just means people who think class identity comes ahead of anything else
it's a moderate reasoned position relative to the immutable trait intersectional bullshit that the non-moderate libs believe instead. the irony is that class isn't just subordinate to them, it's completely irrelevant, at least to the extent you belong to non-straight white male group

To be fair
they probably thought the same of you
anyway i am fully convinced that liberalism as practiced in our country is a hysterical religious cult. so good luck debating deobandis about Islam or liberals about politics. its a fools errand
