#3I so hope this is struck down.
""Americans have come to view diversity as integral to learning and to trust that the path to leadership is open to all," lawyers representing Harvard University wrote in a court filing."
This is not true, and the Asians who were denied entry based on their race would agree.
What ever happened to access based on merit?

From the article: ""Americans have come to view diversity as integral to learning and to trust that the path to leadership is open to all," lawyers representing Harvard University wrote in a court filing."
Do you see the "open to all" statement? Is this true?
What about the Asians who were denied entry based on their race? Is this "open to all"?

Wasn't familiar with the term outcomes-driven:
It is when "a court decides what the outcome of the case should be and then works backward to determine the reasoning that will reach the desired conclusion"

What happened to it refers to a concept called the meritocracy trap.
