历史性的时刻已经到来了:2/21/2012,美国最高法院决定审理用“族裔”的理由来提
高亚裔和白人高校入学门槛的做法是否违宪。您--关爱孩子未来的父母--现在就可以花
一分钟时间来帮助孩子增大孩子上他们理想大学的机会。请您立即投票赞成(FOR) 80
-20全美亚裔教育基金会的民调书,清楚明白地表明亚裔在这件案子上的立场。
资料显示,亚裔在美国要比其他族裔成绩优秀许多才能上同样的学校。要上同样的名校
,亚裔SAT要考1550分,白人1410分,而非裔只需要1100分*(英文和数学满分是1600)
。亚裔入学这么高的门槛使得许多亚裔的大学申请者非常害怕,有些干脆拒绝列出他们
是亚裔—其实学校一看名字还是能知道哪些孩子是亚裔。。。
下面几周内,我们需要征集到至少五万个签名,让结果写入Amicus Curiae (“法庭之
友”的文书)作为证据资料递交最高法院。我们要表明亚裔赞同以考生的综合素质(而
不是族裔)作为美国高校的招生标准。综合素质包括申请学生现在的学术成绩和未来可
能的成功潜力,例如申请人是否能在不利的生活环境中仍能不懈努力等 (i.e.
Overcome adversity under socio-economic constraint). 我们相信这样的定位能给
所有的考生提供一个公平竞争的机会,也能给学校足够的弹性来制定他们的教育的目标。
之所以要五万个签名来支持这项活动是因为现在最高法院不知道亚裔作为少数族裔在这
个案例上是支持还是反对高校取消‘族裔’作为录取标准的。通过我们初步的调查,绝
大多数的亚裔是支持取消‘族裔’这个录取指标的。但是我们需要确实的数据来证明亚
裔的立场,所以80-20全美亚裔教育基金会设计了这个民调书。
如果您愿意让你孩子抬头做人,在申请书上大大方方承认自己是亚裔,而不惧怕会受歧
视而上不了理想的学校的话,请现在就到下面的网站来签名赞成80-20的民调书,并请
您的其他的亚裔朋友都来签名。父母请各签一个名,有自由意志的学龄孩子也可以签名
!(必须是绿卡或公民才可以投票,谢谢合作。)
时间紧迫,谢谢您支持签名和帮助转发!

A great moment has arrived. The Supreme Court has decided to review
racial preference in college admission. 80-20 will be in the fight. We'll
make a difference, IF you'll complete the SURVEY, shown below!
80-20 Educational Foundation shall file "a friend of the court" legal
brief,
WITHIN 2 MONTHS, advocating
"a race neutral and merit-based college admission policy. by
merit-based, it means based on the current scholastic achieve-
ment and evaluated future potential of an applicant."
Take 80-20's SURVEY To Project Your Voice To The
Supreme Court!
All Asian Americans (US citizens & permanent residents) may take
this SURVEY. You can choose FOR or AGAINST the race-neutral admission
policy advocated by 80-20. Result of the survey will be reported in 80-20's
legal brief to the Supreme Court.
To take the SURVEY, click on
http://admin.80-20nj.info/cgi/80/e?l=8/11e/f&w=no .
Asian Am. Lawyers To Help File The Amicus Brief?
We have great data and new info for that brief. This may be a great
opportunity for some Asian Am lawyers to shine while doing our
community a great service. & to be remembered by history. Contact me.
Our Chance of Affecting the Supreme Court Decision?
Significant, if our SURVEY has 50,000 particpants and the consensus
is clear.
The Supreme Court last confirmed the current race-based admission
policy in 2003 by a 5-4 vote. Now that Justice O'Connor has been
replace by Justice Alito, many legal experts expect the vote will be
reversed. In addition, Justices, Elena Kagan has recused herself on
this decision.
The court will hear the case in Oct. However, the SURVEY must be done
in 2 months BEFORE the deadline to file the legal brief.
Do We Care About Giving Qualified Minority Student A Chance?
Absolutely! Note that 80-20 advocates an admission policy that also
emphasize "evaluated potential of an applicant." Current scholastic
achievement is NOT everything.
New research has found that the current admission policy 65e creates an
"academic mismatch" that injures black and Hispanic students. Many
college admission staff consider having more blacks & Hispanics on campus
as an honor badge. They admit unqualified students who would later feel
overwhelmed and discouraged by the competition resulting in low
graduation rates and avoidance of fields in STEM. See a Chronicle of
Higher Ed article:
http://chronicle.com/blogs/brainstorm/academic-mismatch-what-ac .
Go take the survey NOW & forward this email
to every Asian Am you know, especially COLLEGE BOUNDS. We need
50,000 participants to have an impact! Click on

Sincerely,
S.B. Woo
President, 80-20 National Asian Am. Educational Foundation, Inc.
http://www.80-20EF.org .
* When a survey of 50,000 AsAm participants is projected to the national
population scale, it will be equivalent to 1,000,000 people having taken
the survey, since the national population is 20 times larger.
