Significantly. It sucks to be Asian, or a red-state White.

I’ve always argued that it should be illegal for public institutions to discriminate negatively or even positively based on race. If colleges or any other institution have a particular concern, it should be based on geography, i.e. urban poor from Harlem, or somesuch. Yes, that’s still effectively based on race — but if some poor from another race move there, they would qualify as well.
