A great idea! Let us know what conservative students think are important issues!
Also, if it’s easier to get a Harvard degree in Gender/Racial Studies than Applied Sciences, could that be the reason for fewer female/POC applicants? Are Asians and Indians considered minorities in this calculation?
Even if talent is equally distributed among various demographic groups, skill is not. The disciplines of higher education require adequate threshold skills. The various distributions of such skills are a product of all manner of real world conditions, especially culture.
Two thumbs up for curated format. It continues to add value to the Substack feed and presumably gives more opportunity to your staff who are not necessarily writing for the full-article version. I suspect that if promoted well, the curated posts will engage a broader audience beyond the Harvard campus because they will engage an audience not yet familiar with the article-based version or unique challenges that the Salient faces on campus. It offers a sort of readers wading pool for those not yet ready for the high dive.
Great idea having this curated format! A valuable quick digest for all of us inundated with news sources. Keep up this important good work! The salient’s voice gives your subscribers assurance that all of America’s youth have not lost their minds.
Who or what is keeping black students and other people of color out of the SEAS - the engineering and applied sciences school? These disciplines do require rigorous standards in math and physics. Perhaps these ‘left out’ groups aren’t up to the work or aren’t interested in the subject matter?

If you believe what you write, please, for my edification, explain what this means: "Since talent is equally distributed....."
