[Anonymous]

Why does the kid blame affirmative action rather than legacy admits? It’s pretty offensive.

Which bozo even advised him to list that school as part of his grievance tour?

The funny thing is even after AA is banned, guys with profiles like his will STILL get rejected from T20 schools. He'll find another scapegoat. Perhaps the legacy white male lax bro.

Your knowledge appears to be shallow - UCs were flexible with ban on use of race to UCs and strongly encouraged their readers to take a good long look at applicants from certain races even if academically lacking and not spend too much time on certain other races. They have been doing this for many years since the ban.

No student is owed admission to any college, regardless of their accomplishments.

Trying to make sure no student is discriminated.

Literally every student faces discrimination. That’s what making choices means.

Every applicant who is rejected has been discriminated against.

And that’s OK.

There's huge difference between fair competition and discrimination.
Fair competition is great.
Discrimination is evil.

Discrimination is just a different word for making a choice. It is not “evil.”

It’s so clear you don’t understand the word’s definition.

Because Harvard should fill its entire class with Asian Stem majors? Srlsy?

Okay but that doesn't answer the question, why is this student blaming only one?

Yes, of course.

When white WASPs feel threatened by competition, as they did with Jewish people, and now Asian Americans, it’s startling how creepy and jealous many of them get.

Yes, of course.

It's a liberal arts college. There should be no English, History, Arts majors??

NP here. The point being, each school can accept whichever student they think will "fit". And that is fine. No amount of law suits will change that. We don't live in China, not all students are going to be Chinese.
