Quick! Manipulate the admission criteria! The truth sucks!!
Add extra points to black’s scores, take them away from Asians, do nothing for whites.
Nah, nothing racist at all.
While were at it, lets make Jews pay more taxes since they have more money! /s

...unstated in the article...Asians are crowding out Blacks and Hispanics.
....15 years ago my daughter was a college senior and went to the school guidance councelor to ask about going to Harvard Law School...he told her that Harvard could fill every seat, every year with Asians with a perfect 4.0 if they wanted to.
what message is an Asian family supposed to take away if their child is rejectd at California State Universities because they are too high achieving and dull?
The Left is up in arms about the “yellow peril.”
There was a time in America when this was a good thing. It's the culture that keeps others down. - by design.
What is wrong with this? Asinine statement by an administrator!
Since I am a conservative, that makes me a RACIST.
Given that, I say, KICK OUT THOSE ASIANS and replace them with Whites.
(let’s just see how many others on this site think the same - and then let’s go over to DU and see what they think)
Where is the outrage?
If Asians are getting the best grades then Asians should be getting the most spots.
Part of this is that they have cultures that value learning and part of this is the types of Asians who’ve come here. The Asains who’ve come to the US in the last 40 years tend to be educated and very driven. They are the cream of the crop in their society. The Hispanics who’ve come here, in addition to being lawbreakers, tend to be the most ignorant people in their society and the most apathetic towards school.
My daughter goes to a high school in San Francisco where she is one of three whites in her grade. The rest are mostly Asian (98%). I like knowing that she is surrounded by friends that “study, study, study”. Pushes her to do better than she might have.
Someday it will be unacceptable to even ask what “nationality” or “race” an applicant is. The New York Philharmonic has the right idea: everyone auditions sight unseen, behind a curtain.
In a dream world, students would submit applications with no mention of gender or race and let the chips fall where they may.
I really miss Reagan's common sense.
Just define everyone to be black. Problem solved!

Let me get this right? Deny opportunity based on race/ethnicity because so many “Asian” are working hard and going through school? Not the same America I grew up in. What happened to “work hard, study hard and become a productive member of society? Is this something of a bygone era? I guess some people want Asians to “know their place” and work only in dry cleaners, Chinese restaurants, and railroads? Geez.
One of the best speakers in America’s history once said, “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” It’s a shame that too many liberals today prefer racism over this message.
