Admissions discriminates. They seek a “balance.” A certain percentage of Whitebread kids, who will pay full tuition. A certain percentage of one race, a disproportionate percentage of practitioners of a certain religion.
Admissions rewards failure and victimhood, and penalizes hard work and achievement.
If they did not discriminate, they would not need an admissions department as everyone that applied would be admitted.
Everyone discriminates. Every day. About all kinds of things.

Precisely
Let me be unequivocal: The College’s admissions process does not discriminate against anybody. I am confident the evidence presented at trial will establish that fact.
**************************************
Meaning Harvard doesn’t discriminate against anyone other than WHITE AND ASIAN APPLICANTS.
“a disproportionate percentage of practitioners of a certain religion.”
What religion?
Just so you know, until very recently, Harvard had a higher standard for Jewish people, to keep us undesirables from being over-represented.
Got solidly busted for it, which is the basis of this lawsuit.
BS
Picking (selection) is by its nature inherently discriminatory.
Running the math could make it statistically obvious, even to the casual observer.
An intersectional analysis using, say, ten attributes would show statistically significant discrimination every day.
Mrs. JF’nK is an African American.
They don't discriminate against anybody. They just discriminate for everyone except the Asians. In fact they probably discriminate for Southwest Asians enough to make up for the East Asians.
Harvard may have racial, ethnic, religious, non-religious, “gender,” what-have-you diversity, but there is very little worldview or ideological diversity.
And most of the undergrads are near-alcoholics (or more than near) (along with many of the grad students and faculty).
Fixed it.
That was when Kennedy was there to join the libs. If Harvard goes back a third time, it may be a new ball game.
At Harvard and other highly selective schools, affirmative action also sabotages high quality minority students who are set up for failure by being mismatched in hothouse environments. The affirmative action kid at Harvard probably has a 1350-1400 SAT. He is not a dummy; he would be an excellent student at any number of very good universities, just not at an elite school where the average SAT is 100 points or more higher. But Harvard grabs him so administrators can make their numbers. Then he struggles academically, or drops out, or gravitates to the grievance studies side of the university, where he can get a dumbed down bogus degree while being indoctrinated on racial resentment.
Then there IS descrimination, they reverse descriminate to get a larger porportion of liberal minds they can corrupt.
Really? I hope you are enjoying the hell on earth created by the "progressive" neo-Bolshevik views fostered by your academic colleagues on your, the same hell that the rest of us have to live in.
She told me that a classmate of hers,who was the Assistant Director of Admissions at Harvard,told her that were it not for the school's affirmative action admissions policy the entire Freshman class would consist of Asians and Jews.
A Saudi sugar daddy paid his way
Btw obama went to Punahou, an exclusive private school in Hawaii that discriminated against Asian Americans
This letter could make it on the plaintiff’s exhibit list.
I hope that Asian kid reduces that subversive sh@t hole into a Barber college.
Harvard, where 24% of the graduates did worse on the entrance exam. Never hire a Harvard grad.
