These Marxist universities will find every loophole and cranny to get around this decision

True, but SCOTUS just gave anyone who can prove they were not granted admission due to race a club to go to court with. And candidates will figure out how to circumvent a universities new "approach" when they base it on the "adversity" you had to overcome.

i.e. A White person could write how their "race" has been attacked their whole life and they have had to fight an uphill battle because their race is looked down upon and people think you cannot compete with the other races.

Precisely! Back in the 80s, I tried several related cases with a young black lawyer who was a *great* litigator. Sharp, knew the law, great communicator, very personable, down-to-earth - everything a trial lawyer should be.

While we were sitting outside the courtroom (a lot of time is spent just waiting) he complained that he was at a big name Atlanta law firm where everyone treated him as just a placeholder/token because of his race. People just assumed he was incompetent window dressing.

He wound up leaving that prestigious firm and going with a traditional black law firm (Arrington & Hollowell) because they appreciated his talents.

And THAT's what "affirmative action" does for the good people - it makes them invisible.

Perfect example of “the soft bigotry of lowered expectations”.

“Must be a diversity hire” has probably kept quite a few qualified people from taking their careers where they might otherwise have gone had merit alone been the yardstick for success.

" But still, I sometimes wondered if people thought I got there because of affirmative action."

It damn well had nothing to do with moochelle's social skills.

FTA: An African American student placed within the 40th percentile of their academic index.....

~~~~~~~~~~~~

This usage is driving me insane. I am seeing it frequently.

The personal pronoun referring back to the “African American student” should be singular, i.e., “he” or “she,” and not the plural “they.

Suddenly, this is the style being pushed by those trying to make the language genderless so as to blur the differences in the sexes. Sick of it.
