Middlebury college

Lets take a look at the admissions statistics of Middlebury college, a prestigious Liberal arts school

for 2008-2009
acceptance rate: 20.6%
yield rate: 43.5%

men: 24.5%
women: 17.8%

for 1994-2005
black: 68.5% (average)

I am not trying to be racist, or pick on the black population in any way, but the only minority acceptance rate data I could find was for blacks. is it really fair that a college's acceptance rate for blacks is three times its overall acceptance rate. Any college will tell you this is because "diversity leads to a better learning experience" but how does it exactly.
