Asian Americans optimistic Supreme Court will end race-based college admissions

Asian-American groups are eager to see the end of race-based admissions policies at colleges that are limiting their ability to attend the school of their choice.

Mike Zhao, the president of the Asian American Coalition for Education, said Asian Americans have been discriminated against for decades through race-based admissions. The court, he said, is overdue to make the right decision. Patrick Hauf is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.

"We are confident that a majority of justices will uphold the U.S. Constitution and end the divisive and failing policy of using race in college admissions," Zhao told Fox News Digital. "Because of such horrendous discrimination, many Asian-American applicants have to hide their racial identity to get admitted by America’s selective colleges. Unfortunately, in 21st century America, our children are still being treated as second-class citizens."
