Care to address my retort of the section of the article you so gleefully made the cornerstone of your position?

I merely posted an article. No cornerstone of a position. I certainly did not express glee or any emotion.

I do t know why the article posted mentioned grades only. Does that mean their scores were not also better? I don't know. The fact that her case has been a lost cause or turned down at every venue speaks volumes though.

Of the 841 students admitted under these criteria, 47 had worse AI/PAI scores (a combination of the holistic measure, grades, and test scores) than Fisher, and 42 of them were white. On the other end, UT rejected 168 black and Latino students with scores equal to or better than Fisher’s.

Now bash the source all you want, but it does not change the factual data.
