Maybe Harvard will become the Asian grinder school. Wonder which employers will visit?

Nobody cares about the racist Harvard who thinks it is the center of the universe. Most Asians don't give a hoot who's at the center of the universe.

You think the scotus ruling app,ies to for Harvard only or you’re intentionally misleading?

The promise of proximity to whiteness and power has radicalized so many Asian Americans.

The myth they are buying into posits that Asian Americans are a ‘good’ minority group — assimilating into the racist concept of America as a ‘melting pot’ (which is so offensive and bigoted! There is no melting pot because of white supremacy/MAGA.).

These misguided Asian Americans are led to believe they can succeed by bootstrapping themselves into the so-called “American dream.”

In reality, they will always be oppressed by pervasive white supremacy and systemic racism. So they really need to come back to the Democratic Party asap.

I doubt you are smart. Asian Americans aren't all aiming for Harvard. They just don't want to be discriminated against by any institution.

Dems supporting racist policies aren't endearing themselves to Asian Americans.

The left, mostly DCUM readers, relatively affluent DMV people, some of them with cushy govt jobs, really have nothing to lose so they can poke fun. Theb1970s forced bussing has come to an end. What a relief for the left who can now blame Trump. The right has won, so they are less stressed going forward. Lincoln ended slavery. Donald J Trump ended affirmative action.

You have a really skewed world view.

no, because Oxford doesn't use race in its admissions, so Asian Brits know that those who got into Oxford got in due to their own merits, and not the color of their skin.

And also, we don't live in the UK so we don't really care what Oxford does.

People keep using this 'own merits' phrase as if the criteria being used by US colleges are not considered "merits" by those colleges. I assure they are even, if you personally don't value these things.

It was LBJ (Democrat) who signed the Immigration and Nationality Act into law. 1965 to undue nearly a hundred years off explicitly anti Asian lawmaking.

They have made a conscious effort to recruit more URMs at Oxford, so should they have not earned it? What about the wealthy who have always had a pipeline to Oxford?

BTW, all the Oxford colleges have interviews fir admission, so their process is not objective like dcum makes it out to be.

True, but the biggest problem most have with the UK system is how early it weeds kids out of even the possibility of going to college. Specialization happens way, way too early.

the parents you are born to is not your "own merits", either race or legacy status, both of which are highly used by elite colleges here.

Nah. Go observe a class of 6th grade kids. It's already abundantly obvious which ones should go to college and which ones shouldn't.
