I'm not commenting on whether these programs are a good idea or not. But I wanted to point out one thing about these programs I find funny is while the candidates races may be diverse their educational background is usually quite similar. A program at my work is very similar, and the majority of students went to the top ten CS schools.

The education system’s admission criteria is heavily correlated with the hiring criteria, even without taking the prestige of their degrees into the account.
