SCOTUS outlaws race as college admissions factor

[Anonymous]

Test optional and socio-economic background as a factor. If you want diversity with even approach- remove the tests that wealthy kids get tutored for as freshmen and pull diversity based on socioeconomic background.

I told you how they took over the tech in the US. Once one Indian has a foot in the door, they will bring onboard their friends and cousins and then they only hire Indians, then they promote each other to top positions.

This is how it happened in Silicon Valley. Ask anyone who works there. They know.

Oh for crying out loud. Don't act like white people don't do this. Have you ever heard of the good old boys club? Look at most government contracting companies in the DMV and tell me the white male holding a C-level position didn't bring in their friends for other C-level or leadership positions. I.see.it.all.the.time.

You see, the truth is they don't see it when it's white people doing this. But if a racial group they don't belong to suddenly does it, OMG the world is ending! Though in all seriousness, no one should be doing this.

White people’s nepotism and cronyism is why we need civil rights laws and affirmative action goals in the first place. Universities are more meritorious than any other institutions in the country, because they take the time and effort to assess each individual applicant. Unlike the Supreme Court, which makes decisions according to “who is for, who is against, and which side funds me.”

Great, then do it in a way that doesn't discriminate against Asians like Harvard was doing. You want to do it by income? Go for it. But what Harvard was doing is unacceptable.

DP Why is it wrong? Harvard is picking between applicants with extremely little difference in test scores, gpa, etc. Asians are at 30% of the class size and only 6% in the general population of the US. Harvard as a private institution should be free to select its class without government mandates.

Actually, that's not the case at all and that's why this decision happened. Harvard and other colleges were setting much higher standards for Asians than non-Asians, including white candidates. Do you know how messed up that is? As an Asian person with kids who are bright but not Ivy level, I worried that being Asian was going to hurt them when applying to colleges a few years from now. That's wrong. I'm not a tiger mom nor are my kids being tutored. They're A & B student-athletes and aren't taking 4 AP classes every semester. They should be held to the same standards as everyone else.

The hardest working graduating senior I know was a Chinese-American girl. She’s highly self motivated and smart. She’s done internships with university research labs the last two summers in the specific academic area she wants. Got a recommendation from the professor- and was waitlisted everywhere. She’s amazingly balanced applicant- part time job, sports, AP classes, etc.

It's not just that.

The Harvard admissions office systematically penalized Asian candidates on personality. Asian candidates were rated the worst on personality across every decile. This is despite the alumni interviewers scoring Asians similarly to whites on personality and better on average than Latinos and blacks.

I know many Asians that are really worried about this ruling. Everyone wants to consider Asian Americans as the "model minority" which my Asian friends hate. There are a lot of poor Asians in our country who don't come from well to do families that can afford tutoring or live in areas with terrible schools. A lot of schools in urban and poor areas don't offer AP courses which help distinguish a student's record and give them extra points. They will be penalized with the other poor students and now they can't even use race as a distinguishing factor.

I keep asking - what is merit if not all high schools offer the same education.

I see what you're saying about schools not offering the same education but admissions officers know what's available at the schools and in general, will evaluate candidates weather or not they took the hardest classes available to them. I don't know why Asian people are worried about this ruling. It actually helps them as they're no longer going to be held at higher standards than non-Asian candidates.

I don't understand. How were they ever able to use race as a helpful distinguishing factor if they are Asian? Now they actually have a chance to be recognized as facing unique hardships instead of being disqualified for simply being Asian and having to compete only with other Asians.

Well, this ruling potentially gives those students more of a chance.

The idea that affirmative action gave poor students a chance to go to Harvard was mostly a facade. Almost everyone who got admitted is rich or UMC. Hardly any of the black students admitted to Harvard are ADOS.

With this change elite institutions like Harvard may be forced to rely on family income rather than race. This benefits LMC and poor Asian kids over UMC Asian kids.

I still don't understand...Asians were not under-represented as compared to the general population at Harvard, so how are "they" being discriminated against? If Asians make up 12% of the population and have roughly 12% of the seats, then what is the complaint? I mean, Harvard turns away 98% of their applicants, and it is possible that the number of Asian rejections is higher because there may be more Asian applicants, but I still feel like this was not the right decision.

I guess it depends on your definition of discrimination. You are assuming that if the racial makeup of any one group at harvard goes above the percent of that group in the general population, there is no discrimination against that group and possibly discrimination against another group. On the other hand, I believe that not being judged based on my own merits but based on the racial group I belong to (and whether or not we've met our quota) is the very definition of discrimination.

It might be time for a constitutional amendment on this matter, to make high quality public education a right for children age 3-18.

DCPS spends more per student than any other school district, yet has some of the worst outcomes. It’s not a resource issue. You drive five miles from DC and you will see 1st generation brown skinned Asian elementary students doing advanced math in lower resourced public schools. It’s a culture issue not a resource issue. And everyone know this whether they admit it or not.

DCs Dunbar High School did well when it was segregated, more than 10 Ivy graduates over 5 years, but then when it was integrated, educators came in with theories about how to equalize education for blacks and whites, and it got worse, just like the school in Stand and Deliver after Jaime Escalante left.

Asians’ low personality score was based on the perception that they’d study too much, be too quiet in class, would struggle to contribute to group and team work because of their docile natures, and probably couldn’t perform in leadership roles. That’s exactly what they received negative scores for *consistently*.


It is absolutely a racist stereotype that Asians are ‘typically’ the quiet kid in the back acing all of the math tests and never getting into trouble. They are great tonhsbe in the classroom…..bu not in any leadership positions because they’re ‘probably’ too quiet, etc.


What a disgusting racist trope. It’s just shocking an institution like Harvard promulgated this and has all sorts of racist supporters like this thread shows. This is EXACTLY why Asians continued to be denied positions of power in both the corporate world and government even though they do everything right snd often times far better than everyone else. Enough is enough. I’m glad Asians finally got pissed and are standing up for themselves.

It’s true though. They have been programmed by their parents to be docile and obey orders, not to counter authority and not to make their own decisions. This is cultural norm.

And what is wrong with raising kids who listen to their parents and defer to authority? Those kids become the citizens who form the bedrock of any functioning society. If you look at how to raise children, that is the ideal because parents are the primary teachers in a child's life, passing down tradition, morality, values. It's a modern fad to think that children should decide what they do in all areas of their life, that they somehow either have inherent passions or none. Asian parents for the most part, assume their kids are blank slates that can be formed by good parenting. Maybe the URM parents would do well to adopt this outlook rather than buy into the modern crap that keeps their communities down by teaching them that they either have it or they don't (in which case they need to rely on govt handouts and affirmative action).

Nobody wants to go to a college where half of the students are under intense parental pressure to get into Harvard Med School or be shunned by the family.

If you don't want to attend a school where half the students are hard working, then don't. It's a free country. But don't kid yourself that just because Asian parents push their kids hard that means the kids don't have their own thoughts and decisions. The younger the kid, the more guidance parents should have, with the goal to raise them to independent thinkers (because if kids are not influenced by parents, they will be influenced by something else, be it peers, social media, video games, etc and believe it or not, out of those possibilities, parents generally know best and have the best intentions). Do you honestly believe white liberal gen z'ers are independent thinkers? Because no one else does.

Nice straw man argument. Not what I said or meant. I know young Asian Americans who are successful but do not believe they are because their parents are disappointed that they aren’t more outstandingly brag-worthy. It’s brutal.

Did you know that if you survey all your friends, I guarantee you most if not all of them will have mommy and daddy problems? No parents are perfect. What is your point? Do you really want me to point out all the way black parents fail their children? Or white parents? Do we need to go there?

Many conservative colleges refuse to take federal funding in order to maintain independence. I wonder if some elite liberal colleges will follow suit.

They didn't do that when the Solomon Amendment forced them to reconsider not having ROTC.
