Hillsdale Professor Predicts Students' Victory in Key Affirmative Action Case, Uncovers Alarming College Reaction.

Still, he also delivered a warning to America.

The Supreme Court is expected to rule on affirmative action in the coming weeks, which will likely be a watershed moment for colleges that have used race as a partial basis for admissions for decades. The two cases on affirmative action were brought by Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) against Harvard University and the University of North Carolina.

McClay stated that "all signs are the court is going to strike it down" or inhibit affirmative action seriously. He added that the court would find fault in Harvard's practices, and it would ripple out. However, McClay explained that colleges nationwide may still find ways to defy the court's ruling. He believes that the mood of the colleges is defiance, and as a result, they will blatantly find ways of working around the criticisms of the ruling. "They will still be able to sneak in the kind of quotas they want to establish," he said.

McClay added that a friend has predicted that "something like the massive resistance that came in the south after the Brown v. Board of Education decision, which made the separate but equal racial segregation in public schools illegal," could follow the Supreme Court's pending decision on affirmative action. Some southern states responded with a campaign of massive resistance.

McClay believes that if affirmative action is struck down, one primary tool colleges will use to institute equity is pivoting away from standardized tests like the SAT. He stated that this is madness, and what those colleges want is to build "a completely arbitrary system where they'll be able to select all the students from particular categories, minority students that they want because there will be no standard of merit to stop them or to point them in another direction."

McClay also mentioned that many schools are not even attempting to hide that they discriminate against students. As it is, a lot of these schools are very proud of the fact that they have students who are almost always Asian, who have perfect SAT scores, and they're rejected. This is very strange. He said, "I'm not the world's biggest fan of standardized tests, but they do measure something. They're not nothing."

In a recent interview on Fox Nation, one Asian-American student, Jon Wang, spoke against affirmative action policies that discriminate based on race. Wang, an 18-year-old from Florida, scored 1590 out of 1600 on the SAT, with a perfect score on the math section. He also finished his high school career with a 4.65 GPA. Despite his impressive academic record, he was rejected by six elite colleges: MIT, CalTech, Princeton, Harvard, Carnegie-Mellon, and U.C. Berkeley.

McClay also said that one of the most "terrifying questions" concerning American education is competition with China. He stated that America needs "to have top-notch scientists, engineers, and mathematicians" if it wants to compete on the world stage. However, the higher-education establishment in America "seems to be [going in the] opposite direction," McClay said, with diversity, equity, and inclusion as their mantra. "You can say over and over again, 'diversity is our strength,' but that doesn't make it true. It doesn't even make it a meaningful statement. Does diversity mean having an eight-year-old calculus whiz in class with 19-year-olds who can't add and subtract? I mean, that's diversity, but that's not the diversity you want."

"But they're already lining up to say, 'we're not going to stop,'" McClay said of the U.S. college establishment. 'We're going to find ways to engage in affirmative action for minorities, for underrepresented minorities,'" which is not Asian-Americans at Harvard and MIT.

He argued that schools should demand excellence above all else, or China would continue to win in the education race. "They understand that education is important," McClay said, speaking of the Chinese government. "They understand [that] we're not serious anymore about education. We see educational institutions as ladders of social mobility, but not much of anything else."
