Might wanna read the article "The complaint alleges that Yale discriminated against applicants to Yale College on the grounds of race and national origin, and that Yale’s discrimination imposes undue and unlawful penalties on racially-disfavored applicants, including in particular most Asian and White applicants."
"For the great majority of applicants, Asian Americans and Whites have only one-eighth to one-fourth of the likelihood of admission as African American applicants with comparable academic credentials. Yale rejects scores of Asian American and White applicants each year based on their race, whom it otherwise would admit. "

I don't know if you read the article, but the main focus of the lawsuit is that Asians and whites have a much smaller chance of getting accepted than black people.

The smallest measure of blacks as a percentage of US population would be 12%, and at Yale blacks are half of that.
Yale has policies to give slots to legacies, effectively the same thing.
Only this time the federal government and Justice department is what fights to keep the handful of those of African descent going to Yale.
It's what America means. It's what the flag stands for.
