Students for Fair Admission at Harvard University...Harvard answered to our complaints
Good news on the 1st day of the Chinese New Year.
The Good News
Please enjoy this message from Mr. Ed Blum, shown below.
"Prof. S B Woo,
Harvard did not move to dismiss; instead they answered our complaint. This is incredible---we have breached the walls.
This will cut 2 years off of the litigation. . . . . (emphasis added)
Edward Blum"
To me, cutting 2 years off of the litigation could mean that our college students may enjoy their equal opportunity in entering the best of the US
Edward Blum - Ed. Blum is the person who brought the "Fisher vs. Univ. of Texas" which resulted in a Supreme Court ruling that US courts must apply "strict scrutiny". That is, in deciding whether a universities may be permitted to apply "race preference" admissions, the courts must take a harder look if other alternatives are available to achieve diversity.
The above gain in legal ruling then led to a law suit from "Students For Fair Admissions," against Harvard and U. of N. Carolina, against supported by Ed Blum. Those 2 universities seemed to be the most vulnerable to charges of having violated the "strict scrutiny" standard.
The early legal consensus was that Harvard would likely buy time by moving to "dismiss" the law suit in the District Court level and win the judgment. This will then be appealed to the Circuit Court and eventually to the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court will likely reverse the ruling of the lower courts and find for "Students For Fair Admissions" -- 2 years of litigation. After that, the law suit against Harvard will FINALLY be argued at the District Court level, as it has actually already happened today.
Who Are Fighting for the Equal Opportunity of AsAm College Applicants?
Ed Blum, his financial backers and his lawyers are fighting at the forefront!
Who are fighting in the AsAm community? Who else but 80-20, as the only AsAm national organization. Most other national AsAm orgs are on the other side! What a shame!
What are our rich individuals doing for our children? Worse than nothing!
We only know of those who have donated tens of millions to Harvard to get their names on a building and newspapers! Not a single one has given even one
million to help Ed Blum or 80-20 fight the discrimination against us. What a shame!
Step by Step We Will Strengthen Ourselves!
80-20 has tried tirelessly for 16 years to help strengthen the AsAm community. HELP us continue our trajectory!
