Asian students are being discriminated against by elite colleges even after the Supreme Court ruled affirmative action unconstitutional, the Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) group alleges. Princeton, Yale, and Duke have come under scrutiny as the demographic breakdown of their incoming classes has barely budged despite the ruling, apart from a decline in Asian students, according to data published by the schools. At Duke, the percentage of Asian students dropped from 35% to 29%, according to the New York Times, and at Yale it plummeted from 30% to 24%, their published statistics show. Black and Hispanic student percentages held steady at both.

“Our experts concluded that the elimination of race would cause a significant decline in the enrollment of African Americans and Hispanics and a significant boost to Asian Americans and to a lesser degree whites,” Blum explained. “That wasn’t really disputed by either party.”

Promising to investigate further, he added: “Based on SFFA’s extensive experience, your racial numbers are not possible under true neutrality,” he said in a letter sent to the three colleges. “You are now on notice. Preserve all potentially relevant documents and communications.”

Do they have any proof of discrimination?

I went to Stuyvesant. Didn’t see any Nigerians. Although my yearbook did have two pages of kids with the last name “Chang.” ( not a joke). Where did you go?

Unfortunately, Asians aren't in the Dem victimhood fraternity, so they get shafted.
They also aren’t white enough for the republicans so no help there. Better test scores only matter when comparing white to blacks. When it is white to Asians it is all about being a well rounded person…
“Our experts concluded that the elimination of race would cause a significant decline in the enrollment of African Americans and Hispanics and a significant boost to Asian Americans and to a lesser degree whites,” Blum explained. “That wasn’t really disputed by either party.”
But the demographics didn't change.
Yes I can read. I went to good schools.
Having guys you paid to be expert witnesses in your lawsuit saying "they must be discriminating because there are more African Americans and Hispanics than we want and not as many Asians as we want" is not proof of racial discrimination. It's an example of racial prejudice.

Do you not understand it? They admitted that they had to use affirmative action to get the quotas they wanted, which they phrased as a 'diverse class'. But then the affirmative action was banned and the demographics didn't really change. So it's obvious they still use affirmative action to discriminate against Asians and, to a lesser extent, whites.
it's 75% Asian at UCLA, Berkeley, UCSD, UC Irvine. USC is 30%, Stanford is 25% discriminate to keep thier campuses looking white by admitting HAPA Mongol-halves from Eastern Europeans, Poland, Russia, Ukraine.

Do you not understand what proof of racial discrimination means? It's not "the numbers aren't what we want based on SAT distribution charts". Your stance is that there HAS to be a certain number of Asians admitted or else they are being discriminated against. That's not proof.

Why don't you support merit? Why should lesser qualified people be admitted due to fulfilling DEI quotas?
MIT stopped using affirmative action and here's how their class changed:
Asian: 40% to 47%
White: 38% to 37%
Hispanic: 16% to 11%
Black: 15% to 5%
Turns out, the lawsuit was about fairness for all.
Are those students (left and center) throwing gang signs?
There are Asian gangs. I taught a kid who killed 2 people in a Chinatown restaurant then killed himself. But for the most part few kids in the specialized schools, regardless of ethnicity, are gang members.
