Well I think they've sued a few times before...saying now they are being discriminated against.
Because by qualifications and academics a lot should get accepted...but the Universities in Cali are like frick...we need diversity, we need some white folks.
Affirmative action is actually illegal in California

But that's irrelevant in the nebulous world of college admissions.
And in a dumb move Asian-Americans voted against California’s ban in 1996 considering they have become the biggest benefactors of such a ban.
How can anybody prove why or why not they weren't accepted without an affirmative declaration by the University.
Because schools can still use all factors...when admitting students...sports, academics, background and yes any other make-believe trait to the enrichment of the student body.
So Asian students have sued due to not being accepted compared to students with lower test scores.
But that's a hard road. Because the courts have never said, it's just test scores - highest wins. College admissions are still allowed to take everything into account but race. And then can sure couch other traits not being race-based to decrease Asian acceptance.
