        @WSJ Maybe they should focus on educating instead of race. Everyone should be treated fairly.

        Thanks @docbrianS. it appears from the chart by @WSJ, that the downward trend was already occurring prior to 209. Ur info is still helpful.

        @WSJ just shows the bar has been raised and application levels have gone up. Clever to also not show Asians as a group. C- reporting WSJ

        @WSJ This is demonstrably racist legislation to keep minorities economically & socially demeaned. Look at effect on jobs & wages. Humbug!

        @WSJ And, finally, numbers should remove the confounding effects of poverty. I suspect poverty has a stronger correlation than race.

        @WSJ Improper. Graphs show diff stats, one relative, one absolute. BL, HSP total enrollment likely up post 1998 at Cal, UCLA, too.
