If you're interesting in this case, there are articles which are more accurate and whose authors represent the nuances much better. Read the Supreme Court ruling (including the dissents) if you can. If not, read 'The magnet schools wars' by Sonja Starr. If that's too long for you, check out the Volokh Conspiracy's take. Data provided by Harvard show that a black student in the fourth lowest academic decile had a higher chance of acceptance than an Asian student in the top decile. The court found that the defendants used race as a factor in individual students' admissions admissions, and ruled this impermissible. Based on the above, this line from OP makes no sense: In my view, it’s simply erroneous to think that the Supreme Court struck down discrimination against Asian Americans since none was ever found. However, one thing about the article is true: the ruling will not end discrimination against Asian Americans. Universities are already finding 'race-neutral' ways to limit the proportion of Asian Americans they admit. They are reducing their reliance on standardized tests, and they're revamping their essay questions to encourage applicants to write about how race has affected their lived experience. Legacy preferences are an important issue, and perhaps they'll be addressed by the Supreme Court in the near future. But it's still a win that the court clarified that discriminating against an individual based on their race is illegal. Also, draw your own conclusions from the author bio.
