Story time! I had the displeasure of rooming with a black man in my freshman college year. I didn't go to an IVY league or anything, but it was a fairly prestigious private school on the level of about CAL or UCLA. He was on a bunch of Grants and "scholarships" that made his tuition and housing practically free. We were in the same pre-med and honors program together. It was very obvious that he couldn't keep up with the curriculum from the start. He barely passed his first honors biology class, which honestly was nothing but a review of basica high school biology, and was kicked out of the honors program after one semester. He failed calculus 2 at least 2 times I know of, which is basically the second half of high school calculus...nothing complicated, no multivariable just, just basic integrating. This baffled my mind...how did he pass his high school AP classes without having grasped the most basics? Fast foward to my Junior year, I found out that he had commited suicide. A mutual friend told me it was because he was being kicked out of school for Academic probation and couldn't face his father. Now this is sad for the black man, but it is also sad for the white or asian kid that really should have had his spot at the University. It also boils my blood to think of how much of my tuition is used to subsidize these diversity quota students and how many resources the university squanders on them which should have been spent helping more qualified applicants.

It's also unfair to the students being artificially inflated. What happens when they can't pass exams or become a terrible doctor but everyone pretends they're ok because of race? Sky high expectations will be on hem and they will look like imbeciles. We should call it the "Don Lemon" effect.

I heard an excellent argument that said affirmative action in college admissions actually hurts the people it is designed to help. For a successful career, it is important the college match the student.

This is why I never use a black or mexican Attorney or Doctor. Partially because I am Asian and its my tiny way of protesting against this systematic racism, and partly because they probably graduated the bottom of their class compared to people with similar qualifications. Also, this type of racial discrimination don't stop at college, check out these med-school admissions. http://imgur.com/gallery/LPOBW

There are a bunch of stories out there of top students from inner city schools going to big colleges completely unprepared because their high school was garbage. They then fail out and have to go to community colleges.
