quote:

At stake is the claim made by Abigail Fisher, now 25, who hails from a wealthy suburb of Houston called Sugar Land, that she was deprived of her rightful admission at UT Austin because, in her view, some person of color who didn’t deserve it stole it from her.

quote:

Throughout her now seven-year campaign to make the school pay for not letting her in, Fisher has never been able to produce any evidence that the school tossed her application to make room for a less qualified minority applicant. That’s because, as UT Austin has maintained throughout this ordeal, Fisher was never getting in to their school. Fisher’s GPA and SAT scores weren’t high enough, and she didn’t have enough external accomplishments to convince the school to give her a shot otherwise. As Pro Publica explained at the time:

quote:

It’s true that the university, for whatever reason, offered provisional admission to some students with lower test scores and grades than Fisher. Five of those students were black or Latino. Forty-two were white. Neither Fisher nor Blum mentioned those 42 applicants in interviews. Nor did they acknowledge the 168 black and Latino students with grades as good as or better than Fisher’s who were also denied entry into the university that yeaR

People need to learn that being offended isn't a catastrophe.

It's funny, because you know the answer is LSU. You are making fun of our academics, but you are an Ole Miss fan

She would have been admitted if she were black. She was just born the wrong color.

All race baiters are pieces of shite and deserve to be ridiculed.

You obviously didn't read the part that mentioned:

Forty-two were white. Neither Fisher nor Blum mentioned those 42 applicants in interviews.

AKA your choice to believe that whites are disadvantaged is not only retarded but also not evinced in any aspect of Texas' admission policy.
