>I can not read that article, said I reached 10 free articles in a month which is weird, I don't think I read NY Times that often (may be few times when the link was posted here, but less than 10 for sure).

Here's a key paragraph:

>>Conservatives point to Harvard’s emphasis on enrolling African-Americans (currently 12 percent of freshmen) and Hispanics (13 percent) but overlook preferences for children of alumni (about 12 percent of students) and recruited athletes (around 13 percent). The real problem is that, in a meritocratic system, whites would be a minority — and Harvard just isn’t comfortable with that.
Anyone who does not go overboard- deserves to.
