Cuz baby it don't matter if you're black or white....

This is truly an incomplete article, in my opinion. It just leapfrogs the issue by repeating unnecessary statements that are just generic sentences that schools say to comfort their students. "The holistic evaluation of applicants not only allows us to select the best possible candidates, it also enables us to assemble the best possible entering class. Our mission is to identify the entering class that will produce the best educational experience for our students". This is a prime example of those silly things that are said at the start of term assembly. I actually find it quite funny that when presented with obvious statistics, the universities just dodges the facts and just appeals to the readers emotion. It's a logical fallacy, and I expect a lot more from the University of Texas.
They are also being very deceptive in the way that they manipulate the admissions. They state that in the interviews they look for determination or other positive aspects. "We look for talent and intellectual quality. But we also look for character; for virtues such as curiosity, flexibility, judgment, drive, determination and a commitment to use the advantages of one’s education to give back to society." They state that race plays a major part in the personality of the person, but they also assure us that they aren't racist and that they prefer white people to black people. And when the stats are clearly showing that white people are admitted more, the university just says that they have higher moral standards and there is nothing we can do or say to prove them wrong.
