Oh, look.

Hispanics. Didn't notice you guys there. Hell, at only 11% of the university's population, you're almost invisible. I mean, seriously, name one group that makes up less than 11% of the university's population that is visible. I mean, except for almost every major's students.

Organizers said the event is aimed at making a statement about the low numbers of Hispanic students on campus by encouraging Hispanic students to wear brown shirts and gather at Chicano Corner.

Hmm. Brown isn't even the mode.

Is that how you encourage diversity?

Considering that Hispanics only make up 12.5% of the entire US population, a 10.9% representation at a university is a pretty good show.

Here are the overall rates of all college students by ethnicity:
White 14%
Black 5.7%
Hispanic 21.6%
Asian 19.8%
International 21.4
Other 17.5
