ABSTRACT
The feminist, homosexualist, ethnocentric, and other narrow and politically conceived courses that now make up an important part of the curriculum would hardly be of interest to the Asian majority. The answer to the question of what would happen if Berkeley and other schools stopped discriminating against Asians is that all concerned would be likely to benefit. An unfettered admission of Asians would not make Berkeley as unfashionable as City College of New York used to be. But the place would undoubtedly become academically more like the old City College. Two weeks after release of the Berkeley study, the New York Times reported that Connerly "now says he sees merit in some cases of preferential treatment for black and Hispanic students". The University of California at Berkeley released figures on affirmative action that make clear the degree to which Asians, and to a lesser extent whites, are being excluded from that university.
