But Conveniently Leaves Out Why She Was Accepted to Princeton In a historic ruling, The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that the Harvard and UNC race-based affirmative action programs are unconstitutional.
Schools nationwide will no longer be able to discriminate against students on the basis of race.
How outlandish were Harvard’s affirmative action policies?
An African American student placed within the 40th percentile of their academic index is more likely to gain admission than an Asian student who ranks in the topmost, 100th percentile.
Similarly, Black students who fall within the 50th percentile have greater chances of acceptance than White students who are at the pinnacle of their academic performance.
