I think we can impugn someone's ideas without calling into question their physical attractiveness, or lack thereof. This has become a bit too childish. I'm certainly not defending her ideas as the lawsuit against UT was pretty hairbrained to begin with. I believe the controlling law was Gratz v. Bollinger, which threw out a points system based on objective criteria, awarding (for example) 20 points for being a racial minority, but only 12 points for a perfect SAT score. Since UT's system weighed a great many factors, I'm really not surprised by the outcome here.
I am curious, however, to know who on Earth funds the "Center for Equal Opportunity," which I guess is who bankrolled this lawsuit. Who would give money to an organization wanting to make our institutions of higher learning more white? I can certainly imagine some racists would be in favor of that cause, but I can't imagine anyone caring enough to give money to it.
