[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All I know is Harvard engages in "[b]racuial [/b]balancing" and that is perfectly legal.[/quote]

sorry, racial[/quote]
As a Harvard Alum, I agree that having a balanced class is valuable in the learning and social experience. The kids who came in with only high GPA/SAT scores added absolutely nothing to the experience and environment. [b]I've also talked to a number of my former Asian classmates and none of them support this lawsuit. I don't think they want to be further stereotyped by an influx of high GPA/SAT robots.[/b][/quote]

I really believe this lawsuit is only nominally brought in the name of Asians.  The plaintiff is a white guy who wants to kill affirmative action; the same guy who lost in [u]Fisher v. Univ. of Texas[/u].  Another loss will further damage Asians' chances of getting into the elites beyond their proportion in the applicant pool.[/quote]

[b]Are people that stupid[/b]?[/quote]

who? Please explain your cryptic response. :?: [/quote]

PP here. [b] Sorry, I am advocating against the lawsuit, because it will bite all groups in the arse[/b]. [/quote]

cool. I agree.[/quote]
