Equal protection is supposed to mean that government entities must treat all individuals the same when the circumstances or situations are the same. Students for Fair Admissions claimed that Harvard violated title VI of the Civil Rights Act. Title VI, “prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance.” The numbers show that when the circumstances and situations are the same, meaning ALDC preferences, that on average, 2.68 times more whites are admitted due to this preference than Asians, blacks, Hispanics, and Native Americans. According to Title VI, Asians, Blacks, Hispanics and Native Americans are being discriminated against pertaining to ALDC preferences. Judging by the Equal Protection clause, those same groups are not receiving equal protection as determined by the 14th Amendment.
