When you retire from a legacy decades from now with a multi-million dollar B-fund and are on the operating table about to have your widow maker blockage removed, you are told your cardiac surgeon finished at the bottom of his class and has a troubled surgical history, but that's O.K. because people like him were under-represented? Good luck.
