You are right about that.  It is ok to let people in for other reasons...your daddy donated money (money he probably got through slavery), your mommy or daddy went here (probably because no minorities were allowed in at the time) but the second a white person does not get in, it was because of affirmative action.  Why is that?

this has nothing to do with race; he's just attacking the guy closest to him.

Now you know, start blaming some white people for your problems.

That's really funny.  I was reading a post on another discussion board and the topic was "Why do minorities get special treatment"  It was some White guy claiming that he didn't get into U of Michigan because some Black or Mexican with a low LSAT score and Undergrad GPA took his spot. 

Funny that at U of Michigan Blacks represent about 6 percent.  And only about 20 percent in law school as a whole.  So why did he assume that we didnt have the LSAT or GPA to get into U of M and that it was one of the 20 Black people admitted that stole his spot???   

Not to mention in the book "US News Guide to Law Schools"  they presented a case about U of M about a White woman claiming that a URM took her seat as well.  The court ruled that "diversity counts!" and can be used in the admission process.

I am pretty sure I have blamed every problem I've ever had on some white person or another. Even when I screw up, I am stuck blaming a white guy.

Those people that female dog in the other threads about AA are idiots. There are tons of them on this discussion board. Schools need more diversity. Almost every law school needs more diversity than it has, with very few exceptions.

If my numbers were better than two other people and one was son of a donor and one was from an underrepresented group, I would certainly hope the underrepresented group member got the spot over the damn donors son.

Someone suggested trying to parlay my 1/16 native American into something. I think it is embarrassing that people try to hustle everything. How sick would it be if I got in on that basis and it actually kept a real Native American (of which there are almost none in law school) out of a school.

Everytime someone gets into a good school on this website with low numbers, everybody starts questioning them about their ethnicity. It's damn annoying.

Luckily, I got into most schools I wanted, and if I didn't it was because I was an idiot the first two years of college, 1992-1993. From now on, I think I will just blame soccer players.
