I used to just check White and that was it. Now I will mark other and list my predominant cultural heritage English and Norwegian. Do you think this is a mistake? Should I be broader and say European heritage? Should I just mark the White box?

I am largely opportunistic about this. If I think marking White will hinder my opportunities I'll decline to answer or mark "other". Otherwise I'll just list myself as White. I have to imagine though that there are people out there who will see that box for "White" checked and heave a sigh of relief that the guy they're interviewing isn't going to be another knuckle-dragger.
