If a merit based process for a public school magnet school doesn’t mirror the demographics of the county the URMs have every right to complain and sue. [/quote]

If a merit-based process for choosing (and awarding scholarships for) a public university basketball team doesn't mirror the demographics of a state (or country) then whitey has every right to complain and sue. :roll: [/quote]

Surely you can see how that is different.

A public magnet school should be a lottery. You can have academic requirements to get into the lottery. But Admissions for it should never have operated like a selective university or a college football team. [/quote]

Why?  This is a special program designed for allegedly adept students at a particular skill at a public institution.
Why not have a lottery to get on a basketball team for everyone over 6' 2"?  Why not shut down all those urban asphalt basketball courts giving such an advantage to prospective athletes that prep?[/quote]
