[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's starting to sound a lot like the old trope of trying to make people ashamed of being smart. My parents weren't exactly what I'd call wealthy, but they prioritized their spending by buying textbooks for me to practice from. The people complaining about tiger moms are being terrible[/quote]

It's essentially an affirmation action policy, which is obviously racist. It's amazing that athletics haven't  been impacted by the "equity" sickos.[/quote]

That's amazing since admissions are race-blind. It's like magic![/quote]

Google Disparate Impact. Report Back.

If you have hard quotas from schools and socioeconomic groups where Asian students are not, you get fewer Asians. A TJ parent ran a simulation based on racial composition and SES of schools and ended up very close to the actual demographics of the incoming class.

“We’re tired of tiger parent parenting amd prep (which we stereotype as. Ding Asian things), so we are going to stop taking most kids who app,y  from the heavily Asian AAP Centers and force most kids to come from crappy MSs with very few Asians, achieved by a hard quota. Then, we are going to devalue advanced math, which most Asians take” is also illegal.

Even the Judge who ruled against the SB in the motion to dismiss the litigation against them said they were fooling anyone and this was clearly an attempt to decrease Asian students.  The issue is whether artificially depressing Asian eligibility is illegal. (It should be).

DP.  A drop by 20 points in terms of Asian representation pretty much tells it all.  I’m all in favor of adding another TJ-like school.  Goodness knows the county could fill it.  But wow, the drop is staggering and the judge is right in what he said.[/quote]

Refusing to dismiss the case is one thing.  Let's see how the trial on the substance goes.  There are no barriers to entry for Asians in any of the geographic regions.  [/quote]

It’s clearly a disparate impact of a minority group under any test.  And the SB wasn’t shy about saying in meetings they wanted fewer Asian kids. So intent is there. Not that it needs to be for disparate impact. [/quote]
