One problem I had with that statistic was that it does not break down the class
by ethnicity/race *and* gender. This being MIT, I wish they will make the raw
statistics available for analysis. (ie, the real spreadsheet they used, with
names deleted.)
I've always wanted to know, of those 1755 females, how many of them are white,
asian, hispanic, etc. Same with the male distribution.
So that was that,
