A white male student has sued six Texas medical schools that rejected him for admissions but allegedly admitted other students — namely students of color and women — who had lower MCAT scores.
The class-action lawsuit was filed Jan. 10 by the America First Legal Foundation’s Center for Legal Equality.

No self respecting “minority” would ever accept affirmative action and should loudly support ending it in all its manifestations. EVERY time someone looks at a black doctor or pilot or engineer is going to think... “Is this guy the best or did he get his position with AA?”
And that’s a disaster in the making. The war on men is a war on excellence and ultimately IMO a war on our survival.
*For those pedantic Freepers, I'm speaking in generalities. Women means the population that is female. By percentage they cluster in the middle in aptitude tests, scoring rarely in the very highest or very lowest percentiles.
I agree. There will be some societal upheaval.
My daughter is applying to colleges now and with a declared major of biomedical engineering I was hoping her gender would help her with admission. Nope—one college she is hoping for already has an incredible 65% women in that major. It would be better if she were male if they are going for some balance.
*I* know that.
*You* know that.
Everybody *knows* that.
But so long as no one puts a number on it, it’s not a quota, it’s only AA and per the half assed ruling of SCOTUS, it is not a violation of the Constitution.
If the doctor is a white male, he did not benefit from affirmative action. The solution is to go to white male doctors exclusively.
Time for the SCOTUS to revisit the Bakke decision
Back when I was looking at schools for my kids, some which were seen as women's schools were easier to get admittance for men because they were/are all looking for “diversity”. Basically it looked the same for the other way around.
You might want to read about killer king hospital in California....Interesting question...When a bad hospital shuts down ,where do all the lousy medical personnel go to ??

I believe any objective study would reveal that the quality and reliability of virtually every aspect of health care in this country has been seriously degraded over the last 50 years. But to be fair, it’s only one example of the ongoing deterioration of life in America.
Killer King was also a teaching hospital...How many of their “students” went on to be just like their teachers in other hospitals...Don’t forget Patrick Chavis from the Allen Bakke days...When CHAVIS had his license stripped , the judge said he didn’t even have the basic medical skills.....WHY WAS HE A DOCTOR???
Stick with white male doctors.
I’ve been doing that since the Alan Bakke case when the Supremes decided discrimination was ok.
I don’t know why this guy is trying it again
One of my family members had a similar experience to this happen more than ten years ago—edged out by foreign students and POCs with scores manifestly lower; I imagine it is even worse now.
I pity the future patients of the Affirmative Action doctors. Finding a white male doctor will be increasingly difficult. POCs seem fine with announcing they want “someone who looks like me” to be their providers; but even the thought of preferring someone of similar background is verboten for white people.
