If you look at their analysis of what admissions would look like with "preferences removed", but keeping affirmative action, black students in every category would see admissions rates twice that of white students.

How many black students are applying in the first place? I haven't been in college since 2013, but I went to a high ranked school and I was one of the 2 black guys in my major, if you combine 2 class years. The school was still dominated by white folks in undergrad, and grad school was even more dominated by Indians and Asians.

Mind you, this is an engineering school, you HAVE to do some discrimination if you want a balanced gender ratio at the very least. And this is important for a good school atmosphere. At one engineering school a friend of mine went to, it's was something like 8:2 in favor of boys. The women there, regardless of their looks, were treated like queens and acted so due to the sheer amount of attention they got. Do you really want to spend your 4 years in that kind of world?
