Heaven forbid Asians set a high bar for standards. Now all races will have to improve themselves to get in..

This is a massive win for the country, our future science, our future engineering, and our future economic development. The best of the best will be moving forward in our best colleges and jobs based on their merits reer than pie in the sky feels and other flimsy subjective metrics. This allows us to once again compete with China.

We were at serious risk of mental decline and turning the country into Idiocracy.

5 of the 6 Supreme Court justices who struck down Affirmative Action in Harvard & UNC admissions were appointed by presidents the majority of US voters voted against.

And the 6th SCOTUS was appointed by a POTUS who opposed the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Justice Thomas' response to her is even better.

The henny pennies on here and in politics who believe the sky is falling because of this decision remind me of the way they became outraged at the GA election law changes.

And, the results of this decision will go the same way as the voting in GA - it will all turn out great and the people screaming will, again, look like nuts.

If you want to play that game, then it should have been equal to the number of years the humans who were enslaved were subject to their fate going through the signing of the Civil Rights Act, so give it another 300 years and then call it even.

Sure bud, but try convincing the majority of us to do that. You can't and we won't. History is full of terrible things done to lots of people. But you're not going to convince those of us who are here today that we should make great sacrifices to correct those historical wrongs - wrongs that many of our ancestors didn't perpetuate. I mean, while you're at it, why not just give Manhattan (and perhaps most of the Eastern seaboard) back to the Native Americans?

What great sacrifices are you being asked to make to correct historical wrongs?

Little do the left realize how racists they are.

Uh, I think this is probably a little show for the base and then, they'll realize this is a popular decision and leave it be.

-I'm a moderate Dem and am happy with the decision.

But this will not stop the democrats. They have convinced themselves that AA programs aren't racist. This must be some type of mental illness. Are there any internet psychologists on DCUM who could diagnose this mental disorder?

Uh Woodward Wilson? Somebody never made it to college.

If the admission system is race-blind and based on demonstrated academic achievement, I will “start feeling” (as you put it) the system is finally fair.

If my white child is not admitted, I will assume other students simply demonstrated superior academic performance. And that would be fair. Fine with it.

The admission system is most certainly not going to be based on academic merit. Never had been and never will be.

Admission decisions should not be based solely on academic merit. I have no doubt that HYP receives enough applicants who score 100% on SAT to fill the entire first class. But academic merit is not the only requirement for a successful life. In the sports arena, there are dozens, if not more, of examples with hugely natural talent who never lived up to their potential.

SAT measures how well you take a standardized test. Nothing more.

Do you feel the same way about the MCAT and LSAT?

I don’t know much about those vocational school exams. I took the GRE. Yes, all measure how well you can take a standardized test. Classic example is the TOEFL, a standardized test to see how well foreign students understand English. Every year we got Chinese students who had perfect scores on the test but could not communicate in English.

The TOEFL isn't measuring "academic" English. It does give an indication of conversational English.

Well tons of Chinese students get perfect scores and cannot communicate in English so universities scramble to replace them with other students for GTA positions.
