My longer analysis is still forthcoming (two conventions, a hurricane, and a female vice-presidential nominee with a pregnant, unmarried, underage daughter tend to take precedence), but there’s a new story in a UCLA student newspaper. Groseclose, of course, resigned from the school’s admissions committee and alleges that the school continues to use racial preferences despite Proposition 209.

One of the issues here is that when application readers were hired, there was an emphasis on getting “underrepresented minorities.” The story claims fully a quarter of the readers were black.
