I've told the story about my genious white friend not getting accepted into Rice (he had 235 PSAT, #2 in GPA, 1600 SAT, 35 ACT, many extracirricular, and he wanted to go there and set up an optional interview), and my black friend who applied to Rice on a whim, not caring and ok but not great testing scores and not setting up the inteview, being accepted with a partial scholarship. Obviously that's not right.
That's not to say there isn't some merit to affirmitive action, but there's too many cases like the one above for me to support it.
