BREAKING: U.S. Justice Dept. accuses Yale University of illegally discriminating against Asian American and white students in admissions, a major escalation of the admin.'s attacks on affirmative action.

"Yale’s race discrimination imposes undue and unlawful penalties on racially-disfavored applicants, including in particular Asian American and White applicants," Dreiband said in his letter.

By contrast, the Justice Department said in its letter Thursday, Yale considers an applicant's race at several steps in the admissions process."Yale's approach is thus a far cry" from the admissions processes upheld by the Supreme Court, the government said. Because Yale receives millions of dollars in federal funds, it is subject to a provision of civil rights law that bans discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin and other factors.

"Had the department fully received and fairly weighed this information, it would have concluded that Yale’s practices absolutely comply with decades of Supreme Court precedent," the school said.

It is said that money laundering, such as illegal funds and criminal proceeds, will bring donations to private universities in the U.S. under the name of a limited Chinese company. By means of children's admission.The source and purpose of the donation should be revealed,

Is this true?

Republicans don't care that a bunch of white kid legacies get into these ivies without having to do anything because most of them are legacies too

How unfair is that?

🤨

no one is going to talk about the corruption that these white parents pay for their children to enter university.

as an asian american who went to a neighboring ivy league, i’d say the number of asians attending my school were not in short supply. to use simple rudimentary metrics to track discrimination belies the systemic injustices that advantages whites and asians towards such schools.

Yup but if you are a Democrat rules don't apply to you.

As a white person...

billy's jealous he couldn't get in

'... Illegally discriminating...' Isn't that redundant?

Speaking of discrimination and racism! 👇

White supremacy is a hell of a drug

Because Yale and applytoharvard have quotas for academicly unqualified rich white legacies and athletes, they end up excluding qualified, but not rich, Asian and white students.

I'm sorry what? Yale discriminated against whites? What did they do? Tell them to check their rich white privilege? Is this a late April Fools day prank?

It’s not Trump’s attack. It’s Asians who studied their asses off and didn’t get accepted to college despite having higher grades and higher test scores. Nice spin tho NBC.

Here we go! White people can play being the victim again! Life has just dealt them a terrible deal. These terrible black people stealing my white privileged well deserved student admissions my ancestors so well deserved.

So we don't pick the best and brightest just by color now ? I'd love to see ethnicity wiped from everything let the best survive. Strive better to be better!!! Don't be Elizabeth Warren and back channel that crap!!!

Accusations are not proof. “3 types of lies— lies, dam lies, and statistics.”

White liberals are triggered by this.

The DOJ is run by racists right now.

Can we just exclude race/religion from the application process? Is the absence of race racist?

Interesting choice of school. What’s so significant about Yale?

So if the percentage of enrolled black and latinx students is too low yale is racist, but if they admit more black and latinx students to try and even remotely level the diversity field they are also racist, even though they are still a capus minority. what?

Another ridiculous attempt to destroy diversity on campus. They will not succeed. Put race in the equation, or take race entirely out of the equation, POC are, and WILL be enrolled at prestigious schools. Get over it, POC will be ever present and deserve to be there.

Yale is named for a racist.

If you want to get rid of racism shouldnt the first thing be treat everyone the same. No special treatment or considerations for anyone

Of course they do that

Affirmative action is discrimination

Context:

My daughter’s private HS college counseling office steered her away from a lot of selective/ivy schools...not on merit or ECs but as they told me — White. Girl. Private. 🤷‍♀️

Those poor, poor wealthy white children are victims. VICTIMS, I tell ya'!

The woke are racists

Jfc. This whole investigation is absurd. Apparently Yale's *checks notes* 7% black enrollment is too much. They really want to get these niggas up out of *their* institutions.

Affirmative action is illegal per the US Supreme Court.

Asians think they can buy their way into university

Haven't all the Ivy league schools been accepting non Asian minorities to avoid any type of backlash for like, a decade? I thought that was common knowledge. If they did it based on merit and the school was 99.9% white and Asian, they would have riots outside the building.

White people are absolutely desperate to be the victims of something

Conservatives: I won't make cake for gay couples Also conservatives: you can't discriminate against us.

Throwing Asian Americans into this so they can sue Yale for not taking White people is the most Trump era SPCOTUS thing ever.

Now DOJ bullying Yale University for illegal discrimination against white student n Asian, it’s hard to believe those headlines, I just feel it’s a personal agenda

The U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly rejected efforts to stop affirmative action in college admissions, which the court has said can be justified as a way to achieve diversity in the student body.
