Then a white student I know is from South Africa, and he is going to enter African American.
That student is not White, he is just a light skin Black like Charlize Theron.

Judging by the poll results, Asians are underrepresented on this forum compared to their share of the American population.

The census allows for multiple selections while your poll does not. I am 3/4ths Irish and 1/4th Osage so obviously I would be choosing more than one category.
