      Read the article, some minority numbers went down some went up.

      It also says that 40% of population of US identify as non white but in university, 38% consider themselves white.

      Doesn’t that mean people who consider themselves white make 60% of the population but only 38% of the admissions? Sounds like removing this law is making admission rates closer to population demographics.

      Edit:

      The article said that 15% was the number of black admissions, that’s higher than the total percentage in US (12%). So they were over represented, and remember, there could be cultural reasons why some black youth might not think college is worth it more than other ethnic groups (like Asians).
