        It’s not the education at Harvard—great education can be received in a number of better schools—it’s all about the connections.

        Stop filling quotas & taking in more foreigners then America students. Biggest factor is stop treaching hatred of America as most Ivy Leagues Schools have for yrs. Raising Patriots not Anarchists? Uber Liberal universities have hired Anarchists as Profs that should be in jail.

        Well, Asian-Americans as an identity group will be rich enough for Harvard someday; maybe sooner than later. But "We're not trying to educate as many as possible" doesn't sound like a good defense for a lawsuit.
