There are two kinds of black students at Harvard. There are those whose grades and test scores gained them admittance on merit. And then there are the affirmative action kids, who are at the bottom of their class the moment they walk in the door. The latter can look forward to a miserable four years at Harvard, if they last that long. The former will always labor under the stigma of being presumed to be the latter.
Excellent point. The Left tried to paint Clarence Thomas (Yale Law IIRC) with the affirmative action brush.
