Stop admitting all of those strong Black bucks that perform for them on that athletic field that don't meet the qualifications of the university. When you are ready to make THAT happen, come back and talk to me. Until then, I ain't trying to hear it.

I agree with you completely. I noticed that being a scholarship athlete provides the same number of points (20) towards admission as being a "disadvantaged minority". There aren't any lawsuits about that one, are there?
I had heard that in Cali, they started emphasizing socioeconomic and cultural diversity instead of race as a factor in the face of Prop 209, especially in scholarships, which is angering some people. I just applied to UC for grad school, and there were no race questions on my application. There were, however, enough questions about my economic situation, languages spoken at home, and family structure which were obviously made to replace the racial question.
