It is interesting that you argue fairness should be the goal. If diversity results in a universitiy doing better overall (which some studies suggest it can) then presumably it is akin choosing high GPA students in that it is done for the purpose of achiving their goals as an institution. Put another way: If fairness is your goal what about the kids who don't have a high GPA score? What happened to their fair chance to go to Harvard?
