Two questions: a) do you lose the URM boost if you don't write a diversity statement?
b) I'm half-white, half-mexican; is it unwise to take the "i've been treated as an outsider by both ethnic groups and yet I have a great deal of insight into both identities because of my ethnic blend" or go with the traditional "as a mexican american i have experienced/witnessed/suffered etc..."?
