Wait? Are you saying that affirmative actions are discriminating high performers in favor of lower achievers? Holy shit, I didn't see that one coming.

"The higher socioeconomic status of Asian parents provided part of the explanation, but only a small part. Their data suggested that Asian outperformance is thanks in large part to hard work."

So Asians' higher socioeconomic status only play a small part in their success, but Whites' socioeconomic status is the only explanation for Whites outperforming other races in academia (thus justifying Whites being the target of discrimination via affirmative actions). Boy, don't I love it when liberals try to make up some double-think to reconcile their crooked ideology.
