Equity!

Yep.

The history on this goes back decades.

The NAACP sued, and a consent decree was put in place in 1983.

Later, a group of Chinese American parents were upset because the consent decree capped Chinese enrollment.

The parents group sued and, in 1999, got a settlement that overturned the consent decree.

.....and on and on.

And i doubt this school was getting literal gang members like you all are implying. this is like a "top" coach only being good while he has the one or two best athletes on his team, but the moment he has a middle of the pack team, all of a sudden "it's not me it's the players".

Do you think the LA Lakers (I am from LA, I am biased) is not the top NBA team because they couldn’t get a grade D college player to perform like Kobe Bryant ?

Guess what? Average 10 and 2 and you get 6.

But 10 is still 10 and 2 is still 2.
