Sept 22 (Reuters) - A non-profit group opposing race-based education policies has filed more than a dozen U.S. civil rights complaints this year against universities, challenging the legality of offering minority scholarships, summer study and residency programs to promote racial diversity.

The challenges are part of a growing campaign against diversity initiatives after a U.S. Supreme Court landmark ruling in June outlawed use of race in college admissions, commonly known as affirmative action. Conservative activists say the decision should extend to all educational programs, and some groups have also challenged corporate diversity policies.

      Yes they fucking do.

      The Conservative apparatus around streamlining young Conservative thinkers through the pipeline of elite universities is profound.

      These fucks all go to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and the like. It’s a major part of how they have power, the networking that comes from all this. They do it using deep pocketed donors, legacy admissions, and all kinds of scholarships and Federalist Society-style influence. That’s why it is SO important to them to keep anyone who grew up outside of that system – like a black kid who grew up poor in a city – WAY the fuck out.
