When the Westinghouse Science Talent Search Team named its top achievers in 1983, the grand prize went to Paul Ning, then 16.
Paul Ning is not a native-bom American. He is the son of a professor from the People’s Republic of China. Ning came to the United States at the age of three. By 11, he was constructing a simple wind tunnel to study the relationship between speed and pressure. Now being a senior at the superb Bronx High School of Science in New York City, Ning feels: "You have to be aggressive in your studies to really understand what you’re doing." His mother adds: "He always tries to prove to us and to himself that he is the best."
Out of 40 Westinghouse finalists, nine, including Ning, were born in Asia and three others were of Asian descent. This story has reminded us of the fact that some 10% of Harvard University’s freshman class is Asian-American. While no more than 15% of California high sebeol graduates are eligible for admission to the University of California system, about 40% of Asian-American qualify.
Most educators believe that Asian scholastic achievement has much to do with breeding and nurture. Many Asian- American children have also well-educated parents who are always on the school’s side. In addition, most Asians regard education as the best way to recognition and success through which they pay the indefinite debt to parents. Also, this is a way of showing filial duty. As a result, it is no wonder that Asian-American children usually do a far better job than their classmates.
