[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the short-sighted Asian parents, enjoy your short-lived victory. The only real repercussion for the dismantling of AA is that [b]mediocre white men will get an extra leg up on everyone else. [/b] This is just cementing white supremacy. Why would conservative white men advocate on behalf of Asian students unless they think they have something to gain from doing away from the current system? [/quote] not seeing this. Explain.[/quote] Not pp but currently male applicants at many competitive colleges get an admissions boost for being male (not at stem schools) as female applicants way outnumber them. As discussed in the Court arguments, that affirmative action is subject to only intermediate scrutiny (for sex/gender) instead of strict scrutiny (for race). So a likely outcome from this case is that white males will continue to enjoy affirmative action while people of color cannot. And legacy preference will also survive. [/quote]
