Justice Dept. to Take On Affirmative Action in College Admissions
WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is preparing to redirect resources of the Justice Department’s civil rights division toward investigating and suing universities over affirmative action admissions policies deemed to discriminate against white applicants, according to a document obtained by The New York Times.
The document, an internal announcement to the civil rights division, seeks current lawyers interested in working for a new project on “investigations and possible litigation related to intentional race-based discrimination in college and university admissions.”

Asians suffer most from discrimination in admissions.
Long overdue
this will be big news tomorrow with all the race baiters coming out of the wood work within the democrat party.
Excellent news , my kids are honor students and will be heading to college in 6 years ... they’re doubly discriminated against asian/caucasian ...
Expect to see a lot more Asians on the campuses of our best schools.
And to a lesser extent, you will see a larger percentage of women on college campuses.
Yes, they do. My daughter knows an asian male violinist with outstanding credentials who struggled with the admissions process. Not only admissions but things like honors college selections are also racially motivated. It has got to stop,
Good.
SO LONG OVERDUE I didn’t expect to ever see it in my lifetime!
Affirmative action was supposed to be a “temporary” remedy!!!!
Thank Heaven President Trump is moving to end this pernicious form of blatant racist discrimination in America!
Thank heaven! We may finally achieve our goal of equal rights under the law in USA!
No, but most college students today are women.
Without Affirmative Action, colleges and universities will be free to select students based only on academic merit and girls out perform boys in high school.
Yes, end Quotas, set asides, this garbage is racist.
Merit is the only way.
Would you want a Doctor who is affirmative action ?
We knew a black MD...who’s number one complaint was patients who shied away from his services because they assumed he was just another of the “passed-through-because-black” Affirmative Action doctors.
(He wasn’t)
Boys do better on standardized tests, so, academically it evens out. More girls do go to college than boys. More boys join the military.
There are 1.4 million people in our military and there are more than 20 million college students.
Bakke redux
It’s about time they got rid of that rediculous ruling.
S/B ridiculous
