Makes sense to me!
Over at Little Tiny Lies, Steve 'splains the Supreme Court Affirmative Action decisions:
If you want a Reader's Digest version of the two cases read in pari materia, it goes like this:
  1. Diversity is important. We're not sure why, but a bunch of bearded liberal nuts who run a university said so, and that's good enough for us.
  2. Each minority group must be represented by a "critical mass" of students, although this does not imply that when you bring them together, they start to emit neutrons.
  3. If we find out you have a quota or other rational system for determining what a critical mass is, we will beat you like we own you. Shhh, don't tell us. We mean it.
  4. Asians and Jews are not minorities, except when one tries to marry your daughter.
