We Don’t Need More Disaggregated Data

The egalitarians have a new cause — students of Asian ancestry who, as a group, aren’t doing as well as other groups of Asians. While Asians as a whole may be a “model minority” there are wide disparities between groups. You know how that affects those who see every group “imbalance” as a reason for government action. I write about this new issue on Minding the Campus.

Will we ever get past the group mania? It keeps a lot of people busy in useless jobs.
