Liberals are fine with discriminating against asians

Tons of qualified students, white or black or Asian, don't get admitted to schools because 1) too many qualified students apply for the number of slots available and 2) schools decide what kind of class make up they want. 10000 applicants with 1600 SAT scores for 500 slots? They have to pick somehow and they look at lots of factors to make it an interesting group.

Have you never been on a selection committee for anything?

DP. But they shouldn't be racist about it.

Yes screw little Johnny who got s 1600 SAT. he needs to give up his seat to Harvard because racism, right?

To little Jamal who also got a 1600? Maybe.

But you know that government can't tell Harvard who to admit, I hope.

That would be one thing but universities are giving preference to Jamal with a 1300 over mr white 1600.

Yeah, that's definitely not what's happening...but you are obviously bitter you didn't get into Harvard it seems. I'm guessing your 1600 was based on the new scoring.

OP, an affirmative action admission might have been able to understand that the DOJ has no plans to "prosecute" the universities.

Finally someone stands up for underachieving white kids who don't have rich parents to grease the skids for them. #MAGA

I'm sure every Johnny who experienced discrimination is already suing. He doesn't need Justice to help him out.

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is preparing to redirect resources of the Justice Department’s civil rights division toward investigating and suing universities over affirmative action admissions policies deemed to discriminate against white applicants, according to a document obtained by The New York Times.

The document, an internal announcement to the civil rights division, seeks current lawyers interested in working for a new project on “investigations and possible litigation related to intentional race-based discrimination in college and university admissions.”
