Going with the Elizabeth Warren model, Harvard should just claim half the student population is Native American, apply to convert the campus to a reservation, open a casino, and problem solved...right?

Discrimination on the basis of race is good? Good to know.

Will 1/1024th Native American get you in? Hell yes!

Sure, lets just get rid of all diversity standards so we can see just how racist remains the USA. letssee

Former Harvard president defends school as anti-Asian bias trial nears endThe trial, which is expected to end on Friday, has pitted the Cambridge, Massachusetts, university against Students for Fair Admissions. Harvard, do hand out degrees that are not earned? Are you accredited like other universities. This is stupid. Harvard isn't discriminating against Asian-Americans. This is a push to end affirmative action, get more privileged whites AND Asians in while pushing poc out. That's all that this is. Harvard should not buckle to this b.s.

Here's what's really at stake for Asian Americans in the Harvard affirmative action caseA federal lawsuit challenging Harvard University’s race-conscious admissions policies is pending in federal court, and the outcome could potentially affect affirmative action policies at universities across the U.S. University of Maryland professor Janelle Wong joined THINK to talk about what’s at stake in the Harvard case. THINK Everybody 'discriminates'. I am a discriminating produce buyer; I buy the un-bruised apples and tomatoes...I 'discriminate' between them and the rotting fruits. People have to learn the meanings of words before they make any sort of argument. THINK You tell your story very well and I understand the problems. I am far from perfect but was a senior manager for many years in Dep. of Energy. One of major initiatives was to ensure that qualified minorities had every opportunity to advance, using their God given (next) 1 THINK and acquired talents. It was not easy but together we succeeded. I grew up very hard and worked my way through college and was a Woodrow Wilson Fellow and chose Uiv. of Wisconsin. Am retired but still remain active in helping. All the best to you.
