The question asked how your life experiences will enable you to contribute to Harvard. Presumably expecting students to have done things in life is not also "woke" now.
That question is fine as long as Harvard isn’t using it as a backdoor for race consciousness. The administration is betting, quite reasonably, that Harvard is doing that.
If they were betting that, they could file an appropriate lawsuit against Harvard for violating the terms of Students for Fair Admissions. But of course they are not doing that, because the goal is ideological control of the universities by the executive, not colorblind admissions.
Nothing at all this administration is betting on is reasonable at all. I do not understand how anyone can believe or trust a single thing they do or say.
An applicant’s race is immaterial to how they would “contribute to Harvard.”
