谁都知道,为了上同一所大学, 一个亚裔高中生要比白人或其他少数民族学生做得好很多, 才有可能被录取。因此, 亚裔孩子从小就不能像其他孩子一样去享受轻松快乐的童年。这是极不公平的!我们做家长的, 能否在不断督促孩子多做些 的同时, 自己也出把力, 去改变对孩子的不利环境呢?你今天的一分钟, 就有可能改变以后亚裔学生的命运,请赶快行动吧!这和我们切身利益紧密相关, 我们不去做, 谁会去给我们争取平等呢?
以下是我收到的邮件, 请选" take the survey", 填上你的信息, 选"For" to 80-20 Educational Foundations' Position.
可能的话,请将这一信息告诉所有相关的人, 让他们也享有发表言论的权利。谢谢!



A great moment has arrived. The Supreme Court has decided to review 
racial preference in college admission. 80-20 will be in the fight. We'll 
make a difference, IF you'll complete the SURVEY, shown below!
   80-20 Educational Foundation shall file "a friend of the court" legal brief, 
WITHIN 2 MONTHS, advocating
        "a race neutral and merit-based college admission policy. by 
         merit-based, it means based on the current scholastic achieve- 
         ment and evaluated future potential of an applicant."
            Take 80-20's SURVEY To Project Your Voice To The 
                                          Supreme Court!
   All Asian Americans (US citizens & permanent residents) may take 
this SURVEY. You can choose FOR or AGAINST the race-neutral admission 
policy advocated by 80-20. Result of the survey will be reported in 80-20's 
legal brief to the Supreme Court.

           Asian Am. Lawyers To Help File The Amicus Brief?
   We have great data and new info for that brief. This may be a great 
opportunity for some Asian Am lawyers to shine while doing our 
community a great service. & to be remembered by history. Contact me.
           Our Chance of Affecting the Supreme Court Decision?
   Significant, if our SURVEY has 50,000 particpants and the consensus 
is clear.
   The Supreme Court last confirmed the current race-based admission 
policy in 2003 by a 5-4 vote. Now that Justice O'Connor has been 
replace by Justice Alito, many legal experts expect the vote will be 
reversed. 
In addition, Justices, Elena Kagan has recused herself on 
this decision.
   The court will hear the case in Oct. However, the SURVEY must be done 
in 2 months BEFORE the deadline to file the legal brief.
        Do We Care About Giving Qualified Minority Student A Chance?
   Absolutely! Note that 80-20 advocates an admission policy that also 
emphasize "evaluated potential of an applicant." Current scholastic 
achievement is NOT everything.
   New research has found that the current admission policy 65e creates an 
"academic mismatch" that injures black and Hispanic students. Many 
college admission staff consider having more blacks & Hispanics on campus 
as an honor badge. They admit unqualified students who would later feel 
overwhelmed and discouraged by the competition resulting in low 
graduation rates and avoidance of fields in STEM. See a Chronicle of 
Higher Ed article:

   Go take the survey NOW & forward this email  
to every Asian Am you know, especially COLLEGE BOUNDS. We need 
50,000 participants to have an impact!   Click on

population scale, it will be equivalent to 1,000,000 people having taken 
the survey, since the national population is 20 times larger.
