I'm sorry but did you read the complaint?

"Yale expressly agrees to comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, a cornerstone civil-rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in programs and activities that receive federal financial assistance. "

They can "reverse discriminate" for Black applicants all they want, it's when they accept Federal Money it becomes an issue.

Yale is potentially on the hook for Billions in back Federal Aid.

I did. The point is that they’re only targeting the “reverse discrimination” that helps Black applicants, while omitting any mention of their “normal” discrimination — legacy admissions — that helps white ones.
