That really needed to be said.

You can't talk about individuals and statistics in the same breath, not to mention that statistics are often only good for persuading gullible people.

But Max, the preference to rich white connected males has a lot more to do with them being rich and connected than white and male, because I'm a white male and I'm not getting free rides anywhere (well, except through college, but this school is too liberal for that to depend on my race).

Oh, and another thing they can do to improve education is take all the money that's going toward athletics and put it into academics. High school sports don't help enough people to justify the amount of money that's spent on them, and if a kid's going to be a star athlete he'll play outside of school anyway.
