"The worry that myself and many other Asian Americans have is that when admission officer sees Patel, when he sees a Lee, when he sees a Kim, when he sees any Asian last name, basically the image that comes up is kid just sitting in his school on classes studying away math, and not doing anything that has an impact on society," he said.

A report by Harvard's own researchers found that being Asian American was a disadvantage in the admissions process. SFFA also argued in court that Harvard's admissions office scored Asian Americans lower in terms of "personality" than other races, an assertion the school denies.

However, during the oral arguments, Mr Blum's group presented to the court a document from Harvard's Office of Institutional Research that showed if they went off academics alone, nearly half of entrants would be Asian Americans.

The majority of Asian Americans do not think affirmative action is discriminatory. A 2022 poll by AAPI data found that 69% are in favour of the policies.

If you feel like I'm a diversity admission or diversity hire, so what? I'm needed here and my perspective is needed here."
