望提高亚裔高校录取率的“法律之友”已递交最高法院# Parenting - 为人父母
a*k
1
希望能帮助提高亚裔高校录取率的“法律之友”文书已经正式递交最高法院了。文书的
具体内容请见:
http://www.80-20educationalfoundation.org/pdf/amicus-brief.pdf
主要发起组织80-20亚裔教育基金会向大家介绍了这篇文书的起草和递交的一些具体情
况:
“二月时,美国最高法院同意受理Fisher vs. University of Texas (德州大学) 关于
高校录取学生时把“族裔”作为考量之一这种做法是否违宪。事实上,因为亚裔家庭一
般很重视孩子的教育,所以亚裔孩子普遍比较优秀。于是许多名校一看考生是亚裔就人
为地增高了录取门槛。例如要入同一所名校,亚裔录取生的SAT要比西裔和非裔高三,
四百分。
“80-20基金会今年三月时组织了一个美籍亚裔的民调来考量亚裔是否支持法院来取消
这对亚裔实则有反向歧视的‘族裔优先’的高校录取政策。在一个月左右的时间,我们
争取到了五万签名。其中四万七千有效的美籍亚裔签名里,支持和反对高校取消“族裔
考量”录取政策的比例高达52.4比1。这个数据清清楚楚地表达了亚裔的民意。
“在美国,很多组织都会通过递交‘法律之友’的文件来影响法院在案件上的裁决。在
民调结果的基础上,我们雇了一位和最高法院有过多次成功办案经验的宪法专家犹太律
师来帮我们起草和递交了这份‘法律之友’的文书, 并与Fisher 的律师团合作将亚裔
学生的处境做为推翻2003 Grutter 案例的主要证据之一。这篇‘法律之友’用数据说
明了亚裔学生进入名校的高门槛,也类比了百年前藤校对犹太学生的录取限制和今天名
校对亚裔的限制实际上是如出一辙。我们也找到了三个全美最大的美籍印度裔组织和一
个知名的犹太人权组织来和我们联合递交这份文书。(我们希望这个类比能帮助最高法
院九名大法官中的两位犹太法官更好地理解到我们亚裔考生现在的处境。)
“通过这个案子,我们有可能性限制或推翻高校录取的种族考量政策,不过要取得胜利
是很困难的:德州大学已经花了近百万元聘请了一个很大的 (2000人)律师事务所来
代表他们。他们一定也会号召协调许多组织来发代表学校利益的‘法律之友’。目前已
有五个亚裔组织公开表示他们会递交‘法律之友’坚决支持学校来维持这个实际上对亚
裔录取不利的现状, 更有许多其他亚裔组织在观望。很多亚裔组织因为自己资金来源
等复杂原因而不愿意代表真正的民意来维护我们孩子上理想大学的合理权益表示遗憾。”
亲爱的朋友,周末的时候,我去参加了儿子的钢琴汇报演出。他们那场的21个学生几乎
都是亚裔小朋友,颁奖的时候孩子们几乎也都考上了级。虎妈和财爸们,请问送娃学钢
琴的Return on Investment是多少呢?我先生帮哈佛做录取面试时,发现70%的小中娃
都是钢琴十级,所以大家辛苦供孩子学钢琴的ROI从爬藤的意义来讲其实是小的可怜的
。然而在这个案子上,你的投入应当是有回报的。哈佛大学年初时被教育部调查是否在
录取上对亚裔有歧视之嫌,今年亚裔的录取率就是近年来最高的,比往年增加了15%。
请问当你的孩子或孩子的孩子以后在上大学时,你是否可以自豪地告诉他说, ‘我在帮
你入理想的学校时尽了我的力量呢?”除了80-20,还有哪个组织愿意挑头为大家做这
件事儿呢。如果大家都不吭气,那些支持学校的亚裔组织就已经理直气壮地代表了我们
。如果您愿意支持80-20在这次的努力,请考虑和我一样,花一堂钢琴课的钱支持80-20

80-20 Educational Foundation* filed Supreme Court Brief TODAY (the plaintiff
-side deadline) advocating race-neutral merit-based college admissions on
behalf of Asian Americans and all people.
http://www.80-20educationalfoundation.org/pdf/amicus-brief.pdf
Background:
Under the current race-conscious college admission policy, Asian American (
AsAm) students are severely discriminated against. Princeton sociologist
Thomas Espenshade reported in his 2009 book: “To receive equal
consideration by elite colleges, Asian Americans must outperform Whites by
140 points, Hispanics by 280 points, Blacks by 450 points in SAT (Total 1600
).”
AsAms are not just good test takers. For example, in 2006, they were 27% of
Presidential Scholars, who are chosen based on scholarship, service,
leadership, and creativity.
80-20 sponsored a neutral and open survey of Asian Ams on its website a
month ago. 47,000 Asian Americans (AsAms) took the survey. When offered a
choice of "Against" or "For" a race-neutral college admission policy, they
chose a race-neutral policy by a 52 to 1 ratio. For details visit http://www.80-20educationalfoundation.org/projects/colleges.asp
S. B. Woo, former Lt. Governor of Delaware (1985-89) and President of 80-20
said, "Given this mandate, we filed an amicus brief advocating a race-
neutral college admission policy. Our brief gives a superb account of why
the discrimination against AsAms, caused by a race-conscious admission
policy is wrong. It also calls the Court's attention to SIMILAR
discrimination against Jewish American students in the past."
Kenneth Marcus, President of The Brandeis Center and a former staff director
of the federal Civil Rights Commission stated, "It wasn't right for the
elite colleges to limit Jewish students then, it's still not right to limit
Asian Ams students now."
Alan Gura, attorney for the joint filing said, "Every facet of the
discrimination that Asian Americans face today in college admissions has
been reflected in the Jewish experience. Read my brief."
An electronic copy of the brief and/or a list of name/city/state of the 47,
000+ AsAm survey takers will be made available.
http://www.80-20educationalfoundation.org/pdf/amicus-brief.pdf
The survey clearly revealed an overwhelming AsAm consensus for a race-
neutral college admission policy. Any AsAm organization taking a different
stand is only speaking for themselves, not the community. 80-20 challenges
them to do a similar survey to prove 80-20 wrong.
The battle is NOT won. We are facing formidable opponents with unlimited
resources. UT Austin has already paid $977,000 to retain Latham & Watkins
LLP, a 2,000-lawyer firm with 31 offices who successfully defended the 2003
Grutter case. In Grutter, the Supreme Court sanctioned limited use of race
in college admissions, the abuse of which gave rise to the current case:
Fisher vs. UT Austin. There is no doubt L&W will coordinate dozens of
Amicus briefs vigorously defending the current race-conscious admission
policies, and the briefs will include some AsAm organizations who are
determined to ensure you and I would enjoy the current policy for another 20
years.
To increase our odd in this David vs. Goliath struggle, we have deployed the
following strategies:
•Partnering with a Brandeis Center for Human Rights, a well-known
Jewish org whose president is the Staff Director of The Federal Civil Rights
Commission.
•Hired a Jewish lawyer who is a constitutional law specialist, had won
a recent Supreme Court case, and is in the inner circle of the Fisher
lawyers.
•Quantitatively documented the much high barrier AsAms must overcome
to gain college admissions. Coordinated with Fisher lawyers such that the
AsAm experience is now a core argument against racial preferences in the
main Fisher brief.
•Systematically documented how the current college admission practices
evolved from the conscious effort to limit Jewish enrollment a century ago.
Make it plainly clear “Asian Americans are the new Jews”. The Supreme
Court Justices may not be familiar with the AsAm experience, but are
intimately familiar with the Jewish experience. This might dampen the
enthusiasm of two liberal Justices (Ginsberg and Breyer, both Jewish) in
their defense of racial preferences.
•Conducted a historically unprecedented 50,000 person (of which 47,000
are AsAms) opinion survey which demonstrated that our community favors race
-neutral merit-based college admission by a ratio of 52:1. This open and
neutral survey is done to neutralize those AsAm orgs who claims they
represent us and we all love racial preferences.
•Enlisted the support of three largest national umbrella Indian
American organizations as Amici in this brief. Yes, our Indian American
friends have the gut to fight this battle. This turned out to be the most
difficult task: Most national AsAm orgs refused to step forward for fear of
offending outside interests, including their funding sources.
•Publicize our effort to deter more AsAm orgs (who have not yet came
forward) from joining UT Austin. Many would otherwise be tempted to do so
for a variety of organizational gains.
We MAY fail, not the least of which is due to some other AsAm orgs who
insist that they represent you. They will have until the end of August (the
defendant-side deadline) to study our brief to death and kill it with their
briefs. Six such AsAm orgs have already publicly announced they will file
Amicus briefs on behalf of UT Austin. They said you are the 15 million
silent majorities who are secretly longing for more race-conscious treatment
. Your silence is the proof.
Failure is not the dichotomy of success. Failure is keep doing the same
thing (which in this case is DOING NOTHING) over and over again and hope the
outcome would be different this time. Failure is to accept defeat before
the battle even starts (How many said the voice of AsAms is too feeble to be
heard? How many said there is no precedent of AsAms winning any Supreme
Court cases? The Supreme Court is there for the expressed purpose of
setting precedents for the lower courts!)
To our dear friends, your support has been critical in carrying us this far.
Instead of “I wish I could have, should have done something” when your
children hit the college barrier, you can proudly say “I did not accept
such a barrier, I smashed it”. To others, please take a moment to reflect
and to consider join the effort NOW (at the website below). Your silence
is the very reason why some many AsAm orgs are so audaciously sticking to
the current college admissions policy.

devoted to furthering equal opportunity in the workplace and equal justice
for Asian Americans. It has the same goals as 80-20 Initiative, Inc. with an
overlapping Board. However, these organizations use different approaches.

在你们的中文版"号召书"中有这么一句"哈佛大学年初时被教育部调查是否在录取上
对亚裔有歧视之嫌,今年亚裔的录取率就是近年来最高的,比往年增加了15%。"
Hehe, logical fallacy. Correlation does not equal causation. The reason
could be that 2012 is the Dragon year!
我查了一下,这个调查开始15天之后就被停止了,因为起诉的人撤诉了,现在也没有
类似的调查。这都是事实。80-20作为一个标榜自己多么神圣的组织,连这种给别
人抹黑给自己贴金的下三烂的伎俩都使得出来,欺负我们中国人没脑子,没逻辑,没调
查研究的能力,是不是?
你的谎言可能欺骗部分人一世,也可能蒙所有人一时,但你决不可能唬弄
所有人一辈子!等潮水落下去的时候,你会发现自己的泳裤都没了!
他们那场的21个学生几乎都是亚裔小朋友,颁奖的时候孩子们几乎也都考上了级。
Hehe. If you look at the other facet of the problem, why no OTHER races pay
such a huge attention to learning piano? I assume Mr. Wewill2009 would
provide some interesting views on this subject.
然而在这个案子上,你的投入应当是有回报的。
Hehe. What about the ROI for the other side of the problem, those colored
applicants who do not play piano, do not have high SAT score, but who still
want to go to a good college? According to the news, Harvard accepted an AA
applicant who used to be HOMELESS and slept on benches at parks. I
seriously doubt his SAT scores could match the average Asian applicants.
But his determination to get a better education stills rocked my heart. His
admission into Ivy League schools might have benefitted A LOT from the
current college admission policies. But wouldn't you want him to be accepted
as well?
Have confidence in oneself. Like the young man I described in one of my
recent posts, improve yourself and make Harvard feel it is their loss not
accepting you in the first place!

你哪里看来的?
80-20当然是个政治团体,上次总统大选背书了Obama,帮Obama得到绝大多数亚裔的选
票。以下是80-20对自己组织的定义。
80-20 is a national, nonpartisan, Political Action Committee dedicated to
winning equal opportunity and justice for all Asian Americans through a
SWING bloc vote, ideally directing 80% of our community's votes and money to
the presidential candidate endorsed by the 80-20, who better represents the
interests of all APAs. Hence, the name "80-20" was created.

Well, you did not see the mistakes in the statement?
And you did not know the meaning of Hehe in a post????
Speaking of the political goals, what 80-20 is doing is the following:
Under the name of equal rights for all races, try to INCREASE the benefits
received by the race of the organization regardless of the impact of the
proposed change to the nation as a whole.
Moreover,the notion of using a voter bloc of one race to increase the
political weight thereof is ill-fated.
First, you cannot control how each of your member votes in a given election.
Second, you can never claim the WHOLE race vote according to your
instruction unless all people of the race join your organization. So the
claim that "80-20 helped a presidential candidate win the election" would
not carry much weight or pass a litmus test.
Third, if you support one party in one race and then support another party
in another race, well, you might not win the support from either party when
you need their support!
Fourth, pitching a fight against another minority group under the name of
equality in education while trying to improve the perceived political
prowess or attract more political members is a strategy which might
backfire.
In reality, the Chinese ethinic group is still a minority group, just like
the African American group and the Hispanic group, both in political
standing and in economical terms. If you stab those minority groups in the
back, do you expect they will be on your side when you need their help?? It
is a political game, in which the race card may not be an ace up your sleeve
, but may be the joker in the pack. There is still a long way before one can
say for sure, race is not an issue any more in the U.S. Until then, certain
racial considerations would do more good than harm to this nation.

First of all, I NEVER said my kid is a 天才 or will be one.
Second, my beliefs in life and politics have nothing to do with what my
cherub was, is or will be.
Third, the white elephant in the room is that the basic tenor of 80-20 is
off-key since the hope of every Chinese singing from the same hymn sheet is
just an illusion except when helping the victims of an earthquake in China
is invovled. Even for that cause, some religious believers were not on board.
If you still do not get it, here is my analysis: Suppose Candidate A
supports whatever 80-20 supports and thus the candidate 80-20 picks.
However, one policy of A, which asks for tax hikes, does not fit with 30% of
80-20 members. Would these 30% members vote for Candidate A according to
80-20's endorsement thereof? Until you figure out how to persuade these 30%
to vote as a bloc, stop painting yourself as a savior or saint!

你不要低估大家的智商,80-20为亚裔做了什么,共和党对亚裔权利的态度如何,大家
可以自己去研究。以下摘自80-20网站.
In 2000, 80-20 was 2 yrs old & endorsed Gore enthusiastically because Gore
sent us a strong letter of commitment while Bush didn't. AsAms voted 54/41/4
for Gore/Bush/Nader.
The GOP has a (13 pt) dis-advantage.
In 2004, 80-20 endorsed Kerry with reservation because he answered our
questionnaire with all yeses (3) but failed to keep a promise. Bush didn't
answer. AsAms voted 58/41/0 for Kerry/Bush/others.
The GOP has a (17 pt) dis-advantage.
In 2008, 80-20 endorsed Obama enthusiastically because he answered our
questionnaire with all yeses (6), while McCain didn't. AsAms voted 62/35/3
for Obama/McCain/others.
The GOP has a (27 pt) dis-advantage!
Unless the Republican party is suicidal, which we doubt, 80-20 will soon
deliver another benefit to you -- having the GOP share our rightful concerns
as well.
That is how the political process works. We reward those who share our
rightful concerns, and punish those who don't. Soon, both political parties
will COMPETE to share our rightful concerns. Have you noticed how the

满篇都是commitment, answers, promises,这恰恰证明了俺一贯的观点,民主党的政
治手段就是用虚言换取实利,用事后根本无须兑现的承诺来换取选票,获取政治地位后
完全忘记这些,把大家当成傻子先利用后抛弃。
80-20要证明这些不是幌子,最简单的做法,就是拿08年民主党奥巴马的承诺去找他们
,询问他们为什么不兑现诺言,保护亚裔的教育权益。如果诺言管用的话,80-20根本
就不用做楼主文章里那些多此一举的事情。楼主的文章本身就是对这些诺言的无情嘲笑。

哈佛大学年初时被教育部调查是否在录取上对亚裔有歧视之嫌,今年亚裔的录取率就是
近年来最高的,比往年增加了15%。
In furtherance of the above analysis regarding the listing of two facts
together: 1) investigation of Harvard; and 2) increased admission rate for
Asian Americans into Harvard, I did a little research.
The referenced investigation was reported on Feb. 2, 2012. However, more
importantly, on Feb. 17, 2012, the U.S. Department of Education has closed
its investigation into alleged discrimination against Asian Americans in
Harvard’s admissions policies following the withdrawal of the initial
complaint.
Considering that the initiation and the closure of this investigation were
separated by ONLY 15 days, it is highly unlikely that the author who picked
ONLY the initiation of the investigation ACCIDENTALLY missed the end of the
investigation. Rather, the author ignored this fact!
Now it becomes clear that not only the so-call investigation has most
likely no effect on the admission rate for Asian Americans into Harvard,
it also points out that the author is manipulating the facts to buttress his
claim that 80-20 should be credited for the increased admission rate!
Further, it is also odd for me to find that the linkage or relationship of
the two seemingly irrelevant events was ONLY mentioned in the Chinese
version of the propaganda materials used by 80-20. Why not present these
two so-called correlated or even causal events in the same sentence in
English? One possible reason lies in the fact, if the author did, he would
be facing a lawsuit from Harvard because he is defaming a prestigious, world
-class university. Consequently, it lead to another question: why the
author used the same linkage in the Chinese version? One possible reason is
that the author thought a Chinese reader is easier to be fooled than an
English reader. Moreover, even if a Chinese reader finds out this pathetic,
ill-devised, defamation attack on Harvard, the same Chinese reader would not
launch a lawsuit against the author!
Finally, it appears that the author thought the Chinese readers are dumb,
with neither logical thinking abilities nor fact-checking skills. He might
get away with such cheating elsewhere, but certainly NOT on the turf of
the Parenting Forum! Not on my watch. Like all parents, I hate cheating and
will not let it go away easily!

"A Lie Is A Lie "
A lie is a lie
Whether it's a little one or small, short or tall
A lie is a lie
That's the truth of it all
A lie is a lie
When you tell a lie, it picks up momentum and in the end
You surely cannot win
A lie is a lie
You told a story, but the truth did unfold
This habit of lying is starting to get old.
a lie is a lie
If you tell one, you will have to tell two or three
This act of lying is getting next to me.
A lie is a lie
The art of lying is a never ending story
That will definitely keep us out of glory.
A lie is a lie
when you start lying , you have to keep it up
Then everyone knows you have broken your bonds of trust.
A lie is a lie
We all know that lying is like a contagious germ
That causes everyone irrefutable harm.
A lie is a lie, not telling the truth is just an old alibi that started from
our youth.

在美国这片地方。你还要按照白人的道理来讲,那华裔再过百年都翻不了身。只有团结

所以凡是为了华人利益的团体和事情,不论是哪个党的,那个团体的,我们都要支持,
而且要表达出支持的声音。
不论各个团体处于经济或其他利益的原因在操作上有什么瑕疵,观点上有什么偏差。这
些都不能成为打击和反对的理由。 因为我们要鼓励的是华人站出来寻求华人利益最大

等华人地位向犹太人那样了,你们再来挑刺,挖苦,打击都来得及的。只要我们团结,
终有一天华人会向犹太人那样的。

举个栗子,饭店年初时被调查卫生情况,今年卫生评上了先进。
为神马?因为怕被搞啊。我觉得causality还是比较明显的。
另外causality是属于理论部分的,不是由事实推导的。数据是用来证明理论的,而不
是导出理论。最坏的社会学就是data mining的社会学。
当然这是一个孤证,属于case study的范围。但是case study不需要提供causality,

你要证明下你的结论:为什么一个歧视之嫌的调查,因为15天后被撤销了,就没有作用。
比如你有什么错误被人匿名信了,你使用关系摆平了,但这匿名信真的对你的行为一点
影响都没有吗?
另外不知道类似的哈佛的歧视之嫌的调查,多大比例被撤,一般多少天被撤。

Considering that the initiation and the closure of this investigation were
separated by ONLY 15 days, it is highly unlikely that the author who picked
ONLY the initiation of the investigation ACCIDENTALLY missed the end of the
investigation. Rather, the author ignored this fact!
Now it becomes clear that not only the so-call investigation has most
likely no effect on the admission rate for Asian Americans into Harvard,
it also points out that the author is manipulating the facts to buttress his
claim that 80-20 should be credited for the increased admission rate!

再来看一看所谓15%的录取率增长。去年(2011)是哈佛录取亚裔较低的一年(
2008-2012)。今年恰好是哈佛录取亚裔较高的一年。五年中,录取率就在1
7。6-20。7%的区间波动。
从这个数据比较中,你能说今年的20。7%是因为一个有始无终的调查吗?

那我也把我在另一贴的回复搬过来:
很受不了这个逻辑,看了半天才明白.2008-2012年5年中亚裔录取率按高低排为17.6
; 17.8; 18.2; 18.5; 20.7.
然后北大同学说这5年都在17.6-20.7%之间波动,所以20.7%是正常的.
那如果是23%比如,是不是要说这5年都在17.6-23%波动,所以23%是正常的?... 依次类推.
人家用增长率怎么不准确了? 无话可说. 从2008到2012(2007年增长差不多可以和2012
可以并列), 除了2012年,录取率增长率三年为负,一年低于4%,只有2012年超过15% 倒不
