"You be a racist. You and Valor done be a racist. Why don't you say you be a racist." An endless rant. Instead, let's hear your opinion on, oh, I don't know - french impressionism?

I'm from MI, currently attending MSU. U of M never had an "anti-white" acceptance system, they had a point system based on a combination of such factors as economic background and ethnicity. Lets not forget that women regardless of race were also included as minorities in AA, as were many other marginal groups, not just blacks. Either way only the best of the best are accepted to U of M, they are "the Harvard of the north" (although I think university of chicago deserves that title more.

The point system you referred to was the Gratz v. Bollinger case where undegraduate minorities got points just for being minorities. So a privileged black student from the middle class would get points for being black, and a white student from a poor background who was the first person ever to go to college in their family (like ME) could only get in on their test scores and grades. The policy was totally irrational, totally racist. In Grutter v. Bollinger, the case for the U of M Law school, the university admitted in court that it intended that 10-12% of the students of each entering class should be Black, Chicano, Native American, and mainland Puerto Rican. It was shown in court that if a white student and black student had exactly the same test scores and grades, the white student was about 100 times less likely to be admitted than the black student. The court overuled the undergraduate point system as being "too mechanistic", and of course the undergraduate school with lightning speed simply replaced it with the subjective fuzzy system as the law school, with of course every intention of achieving the same results as before. You are wrong about the "or underprivileged" background getting "points" - undergraduate "points" were only given to minorities. In an incredibly bad opinion that was even criticized from the bench by liberal Ruth Bader Ginsburg - Sandra Day O'Connor stunned the legal community, which assumed this case would be the the last nail in the coffin for "affirmative action". Instead, O'connor, as she was leaving the USSC, gave young white people a parting gift of reviving the half-dead "affirmative action" frankenstein, and once again ruining the lives of people like Barbara Grutter for the crime of having the wrong skin color - white.
