Great quote

It comes from "Inside USA" (c)1947.

That's cheating. In NYC in 2012, if you're going to include the grandchildren of immigrants in the immigrant category, it would include almost every student today. Especially in Queens and Brooklyn.

I don't think so. By 2012 it effectively excludes the immigration waves before adoption of the Quota System in 1924. This is the group that has declined most precipitously among Stuyvesant's ranks. They have been replaced by different groups of immigrants, thanks to the 1965 immigration law.

why do Hispanics follow a completely opposite path?

I think there are significant differences within the Hispanic community. The Cubans, appear to have made more progress than other groups.
