Race, its lawyer insisted, was just one of many factors considered, and it could only help an applicant’s chances of admission, not hurt them.
Hilarious
an Asian-American applicant to an elite university has to score 450 points higher on the SAT to get in than a black applicant, 270 points higher than a Latino one and 140 points higher than a white one.
And how much higher does a white person have to score than any other race?
Or better yet, how much lower does the score of another race, compared to white, demonstrate their inferiority?
The unscrupulous wealthy and unprincipled lawyer class bribe and purchase slots for their children and clients, but..................skewing academic testing based upon race and ethnicity is just dandy with the system lords.
You can always tell a Hahvard grad, but ya can’t tell ‘im much!

So proud of my son graduating from Hillsdale this May.
Harvard doesn’t want to learn what Hillsdale can teach.
” Race, its lawyer insisted, was just one of many factors considered, and it could only help an applicant’s chances of admission, not hurt them.”
That statement actually came from a “premier” institution of higher learning. Let that roll around for a few minutes. Race can only “help” someone with admission, not hurt them.
And I keep hearing that Harvard STEM is really bad ass. Laughable on its very face. If some are helped by being a certain race, then the race of others is a detriment.
Harvard provides an invaluable (literally) certificate of entry into the ruling class. A Harvard degree is worth many tens of millions of dollars. When I am advising parents or prospective students, saying "yes" to a Harvard acceptance is almost always the right move, supposing, of course that the acceptee is prepared (and is in most cases already well along) to self-educate.
Hillsdale is selling an education. That's a different product.
