So I need to dig into the study, but if this is the case, how do we fix this? Or do we?
I don’t believe that any ethnic group or gender should be penalized (let’s avoid that nasty word ‘punished’) in order to lift up another group that is not choosing a certain major. I am not a fan of any policy move that leaves out the carrot in favor of the stick where individual choices for academics are concerned. But I wonder what underpins this divide as far as ethnic lines are concerned.
