There is a lawsuit on affirmative action by Asian students at the Supreme Court right now. It should be released in the next two weeks (before the end of the current term). Hopefully they rule correctly.

It comes from letting wealth sovereigns run our government, politics and society.

My grandson has a friend that is currently studying pre med. He was born in the US but is of Korean descent. Why can’t he just put on his application that he is American when he applies to medical school? Seems logical, but the world is no longer logical, is it?

Hilarious how so many liberals are racists, hiding behind “equality”...

A star poster boy for the PRAISian movement is born.

Silly Asian. He thought college was still about academic brilliance.

Probably didn’t have enough bulls**t extra activities on his card because he was so busy studying and excelling in his studies.

Too bad, so sad. Those schools could fill all their places with students with those GPA/SAT results.

Obviously, they are acting in an outrageous anti-Asian manner, but this one case proves nothing.

Universities accept on quotas, not merit. The only acceptance on merit is sports merit for athletic teams.

No, without family connections, an Asian would have had to successfully start a multi-million dollar business from scratch to attract attention. Today, even Bill Gates wouldn't stand a chance.

But getting an Ivy League diploma has actually become a negative these days. Would you ever hire one? For example, Yale Law School graduate Hunter Biden is available, between rehab visits. He does come with permanent criminal immunity to all things.

I hope he sues them all and wins enough to start his own university.

The “elite” colleges get THOUSANDS as many applicants as they have room for. You need a lot more than straight As and top placement exams to get in. You need a story. Or a legacy. Or a relative that’s going to buy them a new building.
