Excellent! Had the undergrad points system been upheld, that would've been a true travesty. I can somewhat accept the law school decision - although I would've chosen a different outcome..

I take it was because it used race as an exclusive criterion for admissions? The U of Michigan can use still use race in deciding who gets in but they have to weigh other factors and must use race sparingly. As I said a few moments ago, lots of ligitation is in store in the future. The lawyers are going to duke it out over to when and how far race can be considered and what sparingly means. The SCOTUS has given the country a masterpiece in legal legerdemain here.

Points system in undergrad is unconstitutional. Law school is that race CAN be a factor of consideration....there were NO points attached to the law school 'consideration'.
This makes sense to me, actually.

The undergrad decision will confound the California democrats, libs, minorities.
CA universities and even public schools have "worked around" the voter's victories and the legistlature's laws. Especially on English as primary lanquage in public schools.
Can't you see the screams at Stanford University this morning?
Consider this; if points cannot be used in undergrad colleges, how many will ever reach the graduate level of law school or medical school to get 20 points?
Like the Marines, everyone must now qualify for and survive basic training.
We will hear screams about this, but colleges and universities that flout the new decision on undergrad admissions are in for some bankrupting lawsuits!
