In this unedited episode, Kenny Xu shares his experience of how some DEI measures have at times led to the exclusion of Asian-Americans,
including himself, from ivy league schools. Listen to our brief conversation about how in an effort to be more inclusive, institutions sometimes create unintended consequences which may be viewed by some as unfair. Is it? You decide. Whatever your position, the fact remains that there is a national conversation to be had around how to reconcile equity with fairness without tipping the scale in favor of one identity over another. The aim of this interview was to delve deeper into this question, but unfortunately technology decided to cut us off midway.
