Mirengoff Libels Yale, And Princeton… D A M N.

For the second time in under a week, bitter, senile old Paul Mirengoff… without a shred of evidence, accused the Admissions departments of two prestigious universities of violating the law. That is libel per se.

Paul admits that the universities may absolutely use essays to round out their classes — they need not simply take numbers only, and draw red lines below a certain score. The justices have time and again said that if the prospective student can do all the work — and had to overcome far more than another applicant — the one overcoming the barrier is LAWFULLY allowed to take a seat — even if fewer Asian-Americans and whytes… are seated, than would obtain on a rigid numbers / math game.

The Supremes re-affirmed exactly that, yet again, last term.

What’s out (and what Paul and Steve Hayward refuse to see) is that the “inflexible quotas” — group, by group — are gone. That’s all. The wide victory they claimed, was no such thing for the form of “whytes first” they sought — and did not achieve.

So it really chaps Paul’s a$$ that Asian admissions actually fell. [And ironically, buried in all this vitriol he burps up, is his underlying (but unstated) racist notion that Asians (as a group) are more intelligent and higher achieving, than Black or Brown people — and even than his precious whytes/Jews.] See here:

…So the losers are Asian-Americans. It’s almost enough to make me think that Yale is punishing this group because some of its members had the audacity to challenge the racial spoils system at Harvard.

In maintaining its quota for black students, Yale is continuing the unlawful discrimination it has long practiced. That discrimination was thoroughly documented by the Justice Department in a suit it filed against Yale (a suit dropped by Joe Biden and Merrick Garland).

That lawsuit showed that blacks in the tenth decile (the top ten percent of applicants according to Yale’s own rating system) are admitted to Yale at a rate of 60 percent. By contrast, Whites are admitted at a rate of 20 percent and Asians at a rate of only 14 percent….

There was not a shred of proof of what he alleged. He just looked at raw numbers, and told himself that he knew better than the essay readers in Admissions who do this for a living — and are scrupulously fair, and seek to create a truly world class entering group, year after year.

It’s a shame that he is so… embittered. And irrational.

Out.
