Selective institutions like brown, et cetera. There do exist highly competent students people of color. We cant walk away believe all is lost and theres no theres not a sufficient quality pool. We just also have to encourage people outside of our community to think about other places from which they need to source candidates. I want to say that. Thats not to suggest that overall relatively speaking there are far more students under utilized than should be but i do want to make the point its important that we all know, as you guys, to your organizations, that there really is not any kpoous the argument that, you know the myth that the talent pool does not exist is not true either, to be fair.
