[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP if you are white and your son is not a recruited athlete then apply to private universities. The UCs really do not want white males. [/quote] Because of CA state law for public universities, UCs have been race-blind since before the Supreme Ct ruled against affirmative action for URM in the rest of the US. By law, UCs and Cal States can not consider race in admissions decisions. They are race-blind and the info is hidden from your profile, it's only collected later for mandatory demographic surveying. That said, I do agree they can make assumptions about race based on last name or affinity group activities listed on EC list.[/quote] No one believes UC is race blind. Their admit data and the state testing scores are wildly out of proportion. They magically achieve the demographic balance they desire despite performance being extremely different by using proxy markers. [/quote]
