This data allows you to see if children of sales assistants, restaurant workers, janitors, are underrepresented. It allows you to measure social mobility and meritocracy.
But can't the same thing be said about melanin levels? "There is no data suggesting there is a problem" is a door bad actors hide behind all of the time.

Dude, that's so fucking weird. Neither of my parents ever went to college and I did, but I don't obsess over it. "Everything" is a terrible answer.
Outside of university admissions, what's the purpose of this? "Underrepresented" how? Do you really think society is a meritocracy?
