There are a lot of things to take away from this study on how ending affirmative action effected California, but the biggest one for me is: Once again, there is NO EVIDENCE for Richard Sander's racist "mismatch" theory and @UCLA_Law continues to shame itself with him.
The takeaway for people who aren't concerned that @UCLA_Law continues to employ one of the most racist law professors in America, is that the white and Asian American students who were admitted over Black and Hispanic students didn't really need or benefit from the help.
As many people have heard me say, over the course of my life, when confronted with a white kid (or, latterly, their parent) who is *terrified* that they won't get into Harvard because of affirmative action: "DARTMOUTH IS A GOOD SCHOOL! YOU'LL BE FINE!"
