Too Asian?

White students seem to be focussing on the social aspects of university life while asian students are focussing on the academics.  The result is that some schools are being seen as being too hard to get into and they have too-high standards to keep up with.

The phrase "Too Asian" in relation to finding a school, rather than being racist, is about finding a balance between academics and a social life.  They claim that they have the data to support that asian students work harder.  The problem is that the students are segregating themselves along racial lines.

This article goes on for three pages.  It gives its thesis and just keeps giving examples and re-states its thesis.
