> Berkeley/UCLA are 36%/28% Asian vs 23%/21% for Stanford/USC. The University of California system is certainly having its admissions decisions impacted by California laws against affirmative action

By comparison, Asian and Pacific Islander populations combined only make up 15% of the California population (1). I don't suppose the interaction of affirmative action policy and cultural differences might have inadvertently advantaged a couple of Asian subpopulations that are now pissed that the basis of their advantage is being taken away?
