After the Trump Justice Department sued Yale following the results of a 2-year Civil Rights investigation which found “long-standing and ongoing” race-based discrimination, the Biden DOJ just dismissed the case without explanation.
In October 2020, Yale was sued by the US after a 2-year Civil Rights investigation revealed “long-standing and ongoing” race-based discrimination.

On Wednesday, prosecutors submitted a notice to drop the case in the US District Court in the District of Connecticut, calling the dismissal “voluntary.”
The Trump DOJ had argued that the Ivy League university had violated federal civil rights law for “at least 50 years,” by favoring Black and Hispanic students over Whites and Asians, according to The Hill.
The legal battle represented one of the Trump administration’s moves to challenge affirmative action programs aimed at increasing diversity on campus, which some conservatives consider unfair and illegal.
Yale, which staunchly defended its admission practices, praised the DOJ’s decision to drop the case in a statement, saying it was “gratified” by the decision. –The Hill
“Our admissions process has allowed Yale College to assemble an unparalleled student body, which is distinguished by its academic excellence and diversity,” argued the university. “Yale has steadfastly maintained that its process complies fully with Supreme Court precedent, and we are confident that the Justice Department will agree.”
The Trump administration notably instituted several measures to prevent universities from considering race as a factor during admissions, even joining a similar lawsuit against Harvard University.

Swamp draining reversed.
I believe the xiden admin also dropped the requirement for the ivy schools to report how much money they are getting from china
The corrupt and protected take care of the corrupt and protected
Not that I want Whites treated better than anyone else, but I
do expect equal treatment under the laws of our nation.
Why is it so many White people hate their race so much they
are willing to go against people of the same race to do them
harm?
Biden is a traitorous back-stabber on so many levels.
Interesting contrast to the Flynn case. Judge wouldn’t let DOJ drop that case. Here apparently dropping the case was rubber stamped.
Once again, they are working overtime just to piss people off.
They need to make sure EQUITY trumps unfairness.
He’s been in office 2 long weeks and I already hate that term with a vengeance.
Asian-American student applicants to Yale, who did not get admitted and had stellar academic records should initiate a class action suit against Yale and for support use the FOIA to get the case record of the DOJ case against Yale as it was filed.
The judge doesn’t have to dismiss... like Sullivan.
Drag it out. Call in amici that hate Yale.
Threaten and charge/jail the administrators at Yale. In the middle of the night, arrest them with guns drawn.
It’s what they’d do. Hell, it’s what they DID.
This is a war that we just haven’t been fighting... they have been...
It’s odd to me that more Asians don’t vote GOP more often. I’ve heard it has something to do with avoiding jury duty :).
If there were no special preferences in college, and only GPAs and SATs were used for admission, every college student in the United States would be Asian, pretty much! (And very few great athletes). Asians should protest the discrimination against them more often.
Makes Sense: Why would he want one of the biggest cash cows to his campaign burdened with a lawsuit.
Asians and Whites didn't deliver those key urban areas needed to tip the "election" to Biden, so they can be disrespected with impunity.
When a Republican is in the White House the DOJ insiders scream that their decisions must “follow the law”, with no political interference or influence. When a Democrat is in the Shite House EVERY decision made by the DOJ has political direction with zero push back from the DOJ minions.
That was an inadvertent typo but, in hindsight, it fits!
Injustice department
Some people “need not apply” because of the color of their skin.
It is the very definition of discrimination.
EVERYBODY applying to these schools should “identify” as black or hispanic.
Too bad Trump didn’t have a DOJ that would do the right thing instead of the stooges he had in there.
Systemic racism by leftists continues unabated.
LOL! If the shoe fits... :)
The Shite House...that one might stick!
