[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me paste the part of the decision that you nincompoops did not read:

"But, despite the dissent’s assertion to the contrary, universities may not simply establish through application essays or other means the regime we hold unlawful today. (A dissent-
ing opinion is generally not the best source of legal advice on how to comply with the majority opinion.) “[W]hat cannot be done directly cannot be done indirectly. The Constitution deals with substance, not shadows,” and the prohibition against racial discrimination is “levelled at the thing, not the name""[/quote]

It would be nice if they struck down geography as a factor, but there is no indication that they will [/quote

They have already ruled decades ago that geography cannot be used as a proxy for race.[/quote]

and that is why the new admissions policy is on shaky ground.  All it takes is a couple of graphs showing how geography was used to bring numbers of just one race down significantly. [/quote]

Why is it TJ admissions officer's fault that Asians choose to concentrate into a few zip codes? That sounds like it's their choice to live there. It makes perfect sense that TJ would deliberately hold spots available so that it can serve the entire, wide geographical community of applicants that it receives. There is absolutely nothing racial about that.[/quote]
