I can understand arguments in principle both for and against affirmative action in college admissions, but I really don't get how opposition to it can really be such an important thing for people. I mean, it's not like America's elite universities aren't still lily white, and it's not like any of you are getting your applications rejected in favor of a black guy. Where's this passion against it coming from?
People have sued because blacks/hispanics have gotten in with lower grades and SAT scores while they were rejected. Although whites don't get hit that bad by it; it's Asians who really get screwed by it.
