So what do you propose as a middle ground which isn't fully satisfying to anyone but which is tolerable?

Seven of them became the Ivy League and the other two were William & Mary and Rutgers.
Anyway, it's not like I'm gonna rattle off an off the top of my head understanding of the state of education in colonial times, so here's someone doing it from research.

This ^^
I’m proud of my white European side as I am my Arab, but don’t try and dilute part of my racial identity to fill a quota or study.
I even read something not too long ago that said that East Asians are white.

The Ivy League wasn't a thing back then,

and the schools that would become the Ivy League were not seen as highly prestigious colleges in Europe. Just because Harvard has a reputation now does not mean it had a reputation then. The United States was a small rural country in the 1780's. Remember in 1790 New York City had about 50,000 people in it while London had about 750,000.

Ironic that when I looked it’s European and American censuses that make this clarification. When Arabs take pride in a sort of racial sovereignty and cultural uniqueness. I list myself as Caucasian and Arab/Middle Eastern.

Kowani wrote:The COVID relief bill would dramatically expand federal employees’ access to paid leave needed in connection with the pandemic, offering up to 600 hours of time off for those who are unable to work due to COVID-19 symptoms or self-isolation orders and those who need to care for a child whose school or daycare center is closed or relying on virtual learning. The 600 hours, or 15 weeks, of paid leave would also apply to federal employees and postal workers who are caring for an individual with COVID-19 symptoms or caring for a family member 65 or older if their normal care provider is unavailable due to the pandemic. The leave could be used through Sept. 30 and would apply after other sick leave has been used up

Most of them view themselves as white.
Iranians used to be considered basically European before the UK started fucking things up, and Lebanon still has French as an official language.
