The problem is when you have quota’s what do you think happens when to make this years quota and it is nearing year end, the next X number of the right demographic HAVE to pass.

I have personally witnessed this scenario, The sad part is it doesn’t just diminish the institution, it diminishes minority members who got where they are because they worked hard, had their Shyte together, and were respected and valued ship mates.
