WASHINGTON (AP) — A Justice Department investigation has found Yale University is illegally discriminating against Asian American and white applicants, in violation of federal civil rights law, officials said Thursday.

Yale denied the allegation, calling it “meritless” and “hasty.”

The findings detailed in a letter to the college’s attorneys Thursday mark the latest action by the Trump administration aimed at rooting out discrimination in the college application process, following complaints from students about the application process at some Ivy League colleges. The Justice Department had previously filed court papers siding with Asian American groups who had levied similar allegations against Harvard University.

The two-year investigation concluded that Yale “rejects scores of Asian American and white applicants each year based on their race, whom it otherwise would admit,” the Justice Department said. The investigation stemmed from a 2016 complaint against Yale, Brown and Dartmouth.

Sounds like Trumpy wants to return to the 1970s cry of "Reverse discrimination".

1. The dirty secret about college undergraduate and graduate admissions is that every institution

bends the criteria to admit as many men as women. If they didn't, women would be an overwhelming majority. I've read articles about this, but I also had a conversation with an admissions officer at a major state university who told me in confidence that this is a fact.
