Rejected applicant alleges bias against Asians

<p>Agree that being waitlisted isn’t evidence of bias. </p>

<p>Princeton will have to try to re-create the choosing of that class for the inquiry. We’re talking about trying to remember what you did in late 2005-early 2006. Good luck to that endeavor! </p>

<p>Asian applicants have complained for years about discrimination in the college application process at super-selective schools. I can’t see such a college, for diversity reasons, choosing a class that was almost 50% Asian like some of the UCs are. Now with this case, the DOE will have a chance to look at the choosing process and see what does and doesn’t fly according to the regs.</p>

<p>Why would a kid who got into Yale care about filing a complaint against a college that deferred him and not the colleges that rejected him outright? This is obviously filed as a test case. But why choose Princeton?</p>
