The Supreme Court’s decision banning college admission based on race was a good first step, but the challenge now is to see that schools abide by it.

Indeed, no sooner did the court rule than President Biden vowed not to let the decision “be the last word.”

I know firsthand why Americans should make sure it is.

Back in 1998, I knew my odds of getting into medical school, as an Indian American, would be better if I were black.

So, being dark-skinned, I pretended I was black — and got accepted, despite a mediocre 3.1 GPA.

Once there, though, I found the going rough and dropped out.

That made me realize that affirmative action doesn’t really do anyone any favors.
