The Supreme Court's recent decision that affirmative action for college admissions is unconstitutional, has an interesting consequence: There is now a lawsuit claiming that legacy admissions are not merit-based, therefore violate this decision as well. At Harvard for example, there have been way more legacy admissions then affirmative action admissions. Once we get rid of both, and admission is strictly based on merit, way more Asian and Jewish kids are going to be admitted! Those two groups have suffered because of reverse discrimination, many qualified applicants being denied to "increase diversity" or other such racially-based arguments.
It will be funny to see how top schools attempt to redefine the meaning of "merit". Important lesson for conservatives: Be careful what you wish for.
