The odds ratio for blacks compared to whites at NCS is 13 to 1, but at UVA it is 106 to 1 and at William &Mary 267 to 1. In other words, at UVA the odds of a black student being admitted is more than 100 times the odds of admission of a white student with the same qualifications. The odds of admitting a black applicant at William & Mary is more than 250 times the odds of admitting an equally-qualified white applicant.
The odds ratios for Asians at all three schools are less than one, meaning that Asians are less likely to be admitted than equally-qualified whites (the odds ratio for Asians at UVA is not statistically significant).
very interesting... so perhaps whoever requested this document should ask the admissions committee for their reasons for admitting one student over another student. These things can be very subjective. I notice they don't give the stats of those admitted who don't indicate their race/ethnicity.
I wonder what would happen if everyone applying to these universities just opted not to check anything off? It is voluntary, and no one is required to fill them out. A lot of students fill them out because they are tied to money and who doesn't want money instead of student loans. What would these libs do then.

There is no discrimination here, just simple statistics and mathematics. Clearly, there is an inverse relationship between qualification and admission. It's that simple.
